Re: Support for Pinnacle PCTV Hybrid Tuner Kit for Windows Vista receiver

Hi Felix,

No problems. You must be very busy with the release of 1.0. Congratulations are in order. I just wished I had known about Remote Buddy earlier. Let's continue here so that others may benefit.

OK, here goes. Info from System Profiler:

PCTV Remote USB: 
Version: 0.01 
Bus Power (mA): 500 
Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec 
Manufacturer: Pinnacle Systems 
Product ID: 0x0225 
Serial Number: 7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF 
Vendor ID: 0x2304

The transceiver has a USB port and 2 IR blaster ports, no sticker on the bottom, just some embossed FCC & CE logos & a number 8241-01065-01. That's all. Inside the biggest chip is a CY7C64215-28PVXC. USB controller? It's also got www.pinnaclesys.com and its logo on the PCB. Guess it's not a Philips after all.

Hope that helps. Let me know if you need pictures of the innards.
