btw. I talked to Xceive a while ago regarding BSD, the xc3028 and
xc5000 tuners which are used for analog and digital TV devices (eg.
DVB-T, ATSC, analog TV-multistandard) can be licensed under the terms
of the BSD license.

I will keep the sources uptodate (there are occasionally firmware updates).

Those ICs are used with numerous devices nowadays. If there are any
questions just drop me a line.

regards,
Markus
