First:
It would be very helpfull if someone from TBS could explain in a few words the difference between the 6922, 6921 and 6920.
I hope of course for an answer that explains the reason for example to choose a different chip here or change a layout there... cause it is not very helpfull to only know that the 6920 has NXP chips and the 6922 from Phillips. Maybe also an explaination of the advanages or disadvantages...
Second:
I understood that the linux drivers for the 6922 and 6921 are closed source, so will this be forever the case? Is there no chip on the market with open sources drivers (maybe only some firmware files to copy into linux os) which is worth to be part of a DVB-S2 PCIE card? I am asking this cause due to many new kernel releases, one would always need to recompile the drivers for the new kernel. I would of course love to have them already in the kernel as open source. Or at least a DKMS.
BTW, is it really necessary to compile all the media/dvb drivers and firmwares to only get ONE card like the 6922 running?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
