A LifeView TV Walker Twin (LR540) ... hoping Nick will upload this pic

A dual DVB-T USB Receiver from LifeView.

It is supported ([see below] for further information).

Components Used:

Contains 2 tuners and 2 demodulators, and 1 remote control.

  • NXP/Philips 8275AC1 (tuner)
  • NXP/Philips TDA10046A (demodulator)
  • ULi M9206 (USB bridge)

The M9206 chip handles two demodulators and two tuners.

The demodulators are located at 7-bit i2c addresses 0x08 and 0x0b. The tuners are located at 7-bit i2c addresses 0x60 and 0x61.

Subsystem information:

USB id: 10fd:0514 (cold - before firmware download)
USB id: 10fd:0513 (warm - after firmware download)

Status

Supported and mostly working. Things which work include:

  • Device is recognised and two tuners and two demodulators are attached. With the latest driver both tuners are working fine
  • Can play video streams using Kaffeine
  • Remote control initialisation and codes have been determined

Things which may not work include:

  • "scan" only finds some transponders (for Nick Andrew, at least)
  • Have not successfully used dvbstream yet (though, may be the result of incorrect settings)

Driver
