Hi Dave,

you have to run "make kernel-links", this will update your kernel
sourcetree with the latest v4l-dvb sources.
After this if you rebuild your camdrivers they will use the latest
sources and everything should work out fine. You cannot mix cam
drivers which are build with older v4l-dvb inkernelsources with the
latest v4l-dvb sources from linuxtv.org.
