I do prefer the GOLD version and the cx88. :-) I was just saying that the bttv driver has been out for a long time (and as such it is bound to be mature). And even the chip itself originated from an old company named brooktree. (brooktree got bought over by Rockwell, who later spun off it's semiconductor sector into Conexant and then Conexant spun off a whole bunch of other smaller companies, and all hell broke lose. trust me, i speak out of experience. ;) the cx stands for conexant.) > > DVICO's DVB cards come in Lite and regular too, with the bridge chip > being the difference again (and perhaps the software). > > Hamish >
