There is some progress on other USB2.0 devices made in Taiwan. Do you know 
a company named C&E? They created a usb2.0 device with the mt352 mounted. 
The one made by Hanftek is almost working with dibusb. And then there is 
another one (Hanftek cloned it), but with another tuner. In Germany these 
device are selled under the name "Hama", "Yakumo" and "Typhoon".

Oh, that one is new. Is this device working with the drivers? I assume 
not, because I assigned the MagicBox to AN2135 and then it loads the wrong 
firmware. The demod and the tuner are already done, just the wrong 
firmware I think.

Could you please tell me the cold USB ID (before firmware loading? You can 
find these out by running lsusb -v (please send the output to me) just 
after pluging in the device and no driver loaded before.

Just a look on the usb ids is sufficient. Please also send 
the .inf-files from the windows you are using, if any.

Patrick.
