I already discussed this dibcom + analog with Michael and Pattrick and I ended with the conclusion that was better to wait a little for Michael (or somebody) integrate the standard stuff with the dvb-usb api. Seeing there's more people interested that what we thought initialy I just send the answer from Pattrick which give good guides on the dibcom stuff. I'm not going to start anything, as I said I think is better to wait a little.

Here's Pattrick answer for the interested (again thanks for your kind help);
Analog and DiBCom, *sigh*, it works, but it is a baby nobody really wants.
OK, let me tell you, what I had once in mind: The analog and DVB hardware abstraction in the driver is signifacantly different. That's why it was possible for me to create something like dvb-usb, but not so easy to have something like v4l-usb, which abstracts the streaming and other common things.
Mainly the frontend-architecture is it, which makes DVB more powerful that v4l hardware abstraction. But OK.
If there would be a generic streaming mechanism which works similar to the one in dvb-usb, I think it would be relatively easy to add analog-support for dvb-usb or to add a analog-support to a dvb-usb-based device (function pointer which is called each time a URB is returned instead of directly passing it to the dvb-demuxer).
For the dib0700-driver you need some things to set up in order to receive analog audio and video (see attached):
First you need to configure the streaming interface on the dib0700-usb-bridge. This is done with a USB request from the host and depends on the video format.
Then the streaming needs to be enabled in a different way then in DVB.
That's it. If I understand everything correctly, there are no special settings for the cx2584x, but time will tell. Also it is important to know, that the audio is coming in on endpoint3 and the video on endpoint2, which might give some AV async.

Lets sync up when you get to that point -- I have a good chunk of code
written that will add analog support to the dvb-usb framework as an
optional additional adapter type.
Hopefully I'll get more work done on it before then, but if not, this
is at least a good starting point.
The idea is to add support to the framework so that the sub-drivers
(such as dib0700, cxusb et al) can all use the common code.
CX25843 is already supported, just the dvb-usb framework currently
lacks a v4l2 interface.
Regards,
Mike
