6.5.14.2. Frontend drivers¶
Note
There is no guarantee that every frontend driver works out of the box with every card, because of different wiring.
The demodulator chips can be used with a variety of tuner/PLL chips, and not all combinations are supported. Often the demodulator and tuner/PLL chip are inside a metal box for shielding, and the whole metal box has its own part number.
