[linux-dvb] some feedback

[MK <amk@befree.ch>]

Hi all, 

here's feedback on some testing (still using driver 0.71)

mpeg2 compatiblity: tested some home-made recordings made with an ATI 
all-in-wonder 128 32MB (rage128) under windoze. 
I set those to have 2.6 MB/s MPEG2 Video and 224 KB/s 48 KHz Audio (Not AC3).

cat recordedstuff > /dev/video

results are good. No glitches, no artefacts, sync is kept. so far, so good.
However the image is rather on the dark side. I had to turn up luminosity. (?)

I can see the day when I can treat all my video stuff under linux. ;-)

I am able to run together the bttv (bt878) and the dvb card again. I had to 
go back to an old (0.64h) version of bttv, some more recent will run too (I 
did but I don't remember which one, will have to try) but the most recent 
ones are diverging quite fast and are now based on an incompatible version of 
the i2c driver. :-(  Has someone determined which is the most recent but 
still compatible bttv? At some point this will have to be addressed.

Still couldn't compile Guido Fiala's kvdr because of Mandrake 7.2 fscked 
kde2n configuration. This one will need some toying with automake I guess. :-(

Got an Irman, nice piece, undertands a lot of different remote controls. 
Adopted.

Greetings,

Max
