An ATSC PCI card. This device, which is also known as the KWorld PlusTV HD PCI 120, is identical to the Geniatech HDTV Thriller X8000A. Drivers for these cards are in development now. Experimental drivers can be had by fetching revision 7448 or later of the main v4l-dvb repository.

As of 27 Mar 2008, this card can be used in both analog and digital ATSC modes, although this must be done separately as a reboot between mode switches is presently required, due to the architecture of the card. Plans to work around this issue are ongoing.

It has a PCI subsytem ID of 17de:08c1. The complete details of this are, as reported by lspci -vvnn are:
