LifeView FlyTV Platinum

Introduction

LifeView's FlyTV Platinum Low Profile FM card has the Phillips SAA7135 global tuner chip, which supports the NTSC, PAL BG/DK/I, and SECAM LL' video standards. Audio support includes NiCAM, A2, BTSC/MTS, and EIA-J.

A version of this card, the FlyTV Platinum Mini, is shipped with a number of laptops. A full-size version is sold as FlyTV Platinum Gold.

Support under Linux appears to be good, thanks to patches submitted by Peter Misses to the 2.6.12 kernel (I've not tested the card myself yet).

The card includes the following chips: saa7135, tda8275, tda8290, mdt2005es-g, and 4052bt,
