==What is this wiki about?== |
|||
⚫ | This wiki is intended to become an authoritative source of information regarding the use of analog video and digital TV sources under Linux -- i.e. [[What is V4L or DVB?|the subject matters covered under the V4L & DVB frameworks]]. The basic plan is to aggregate information about available hardware, how V4L or DVB work, software used with the hardware and so forth. Like all other wikis, the V4L-DVB wiki relies upon the contributions of its users. Hence, it will only be as useful as we make it! <br> |
