the same card sometimes has also 600e000, bit 13 high.

With eeprom read error I guess only as unknown/generic without tuner.

Hi,

they used card=77 for analog tv, it has a different vmux connection than
card=81. You don't even get a analog TV picture with card=81.

According to Hartmut the 310i doesn't follow the Philips reference
design and this makes it complicated to support it for DVB-T currently.

If you power cycle/cold reboot the machine, goes the eeprom read error
away using only card=77 for now?

Cheers,
Hermann
