By the way, is there any method for getting more error information from the device ? Do you know whether packets in error are discarded by the device without being passed to the device driver ? If so, is there a programmable option to pass error packets through to the device driver and application ? regards, John _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
