Making it Work

First place the firmware file (see below) in the correct location and reboot. Then the easiest method is to use Kaffeine to scan for channels. The AVF4910 chip has a big responsibility in receiving analog TV or radio. Unfortunatly no Linux driver for it exists at the time of writing. Thus, analog reception will not work.

Firmware

A firmware file has to be downloaded and copied to /lib/firmware [1] [2]

Drivers

Drivers name is em28xx/em2884
