It would really be great if this would work again. I always compile the firmware into the driver, so that I can be absolutely sure that a given driver directory contains a matching driver/firmware pair. >>So now I have all the *.ko files in /home/kls/vdr/DVB-v4l-dvb.2005-12-02/v4l, >>but I can't seen to find out how to properly load them.

Yes, apparently that script sill works. Klaus
