Pinnacle PCTV HD Pro Stick (801e)

Pinnacle is now selling a new device under the brand "Pinnacle HD Pro Stick", which is significantly different from the previously selling device with under the same name.

The device identifies itself as a "PCTV 801e" and the subsystem information provided by lsusb -v is 2304:023a.

The older version of the device (USB ID 2304:0227) can be found at Pinnacle PCTV HD Pro Stick (800e)

This device appears to be significantly different in architecture, and not a minor revision. In particular, the new device uses a DIBcom 0700C, as opposed to the older device which used an em28xx device. And the new device uses the xc5000, whereas the older device used an xc3028.
