[vdr] Re: [ANNOUNCE] DXR3-plugin 0.1.8

[Malcolm Caldwell <malcolm.caldwell@ntu.edu.au>]

Hello,

I am currently running dxr3-0.1.6 with the em8300 patched with the patch
in the plugin distribution.  (I briefly tried 0.1.7 but it was less
stable)

My question: is it still necessary (or advisable) to patch the em8300
driver for use with the plugin?
