For exmaple, mythtv needs to communicate through either v4l, dvb, or some other (v4l and dvb being most popular). I went on the irc channel and someone said that this application did pretty much what I wanted: http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/VideoFourLinuxLoopbackDeviceAPI?CGISESSID=e96a8a51629b324ffbdc61afa736f162 I downloaded it and am playing around with it, but it is in kernel space and at this point provides me with a v4l output, so it is pretty much what I am looking for. I am not sure that this is the definate solution, but I will keep on playing around with it to see what I can get accomplished. I will reply to this thread and post my findings at a later point in time. Thanks for all the help Manu, I will keep your suggestions in mind as I go along. Luc Gallant
