Sorry, no idea about the polarisation...<br>For the patch, just send a mail to the mailing list with the subject [PATCH] and a description (add such device to dibcom driver), containing the patch (you can create it running hg diff -p -U 8 v4l-dvb > somname.patch) and a line saying signed-off by: yourname yourmail. You can also add me to the signed-off by if you want :). And probably somebody will update the source.<br>

Hi Albert,<br>
<br>
just in time I find out, if I keep my flagpol antenna horizontal, every<br>
channel works fine and without artefacts.<br>
<br>
Is it possible to change the polarisation in the source code?<br>
<br>
Which list do you mean, i've never done similar before.<br>
<br>
Greetings Yusuf<br>
