Last time I wrote about the HTPC project (though I wrote HMC), nothing was working, today it's quite the opposite. Sometimes, in order to solve a problem, you have to just grind - and if you do that long enough you will solve the problem. At other times, the solution will be quicker/better if you take a step back. The HTPC project is a case of the latter.

I finally got the TV tuner working. A key to this was finding out that the Deltaco usb tuner was in fact a rebranded part featuring the e3c ec168 chip. Also, the remote does not work yet - so we use the keyboard (which was the one in the house with the longest cord).
