Hi, I'm currently implementing a streaming server which will stream (part of) the TS received from /dev/dvb/adapter?/dvr? to a multicast socket. I'd like to be as efficient as possible, so I took at look at the splice() function implemented as of Linux 2.6.17 and it looks promising as for most cases I could splice() the data from the dvr device directly to the socket. There might be two problems though: - Is there a splice() patch for the DVB drivers? http://lwn.net/Articles/178199/ suggests that doing such a thing is possible, but I havn't found an implementation yet. - Is there a way to do a read() from the dvr device without removing the data from the queue (i.e. an equivalent for recv()/MSG_PEEK)? I'd need that to know the PID of the the TS packet. Thanks for any hint...
