If it works, than it works:)Me and Manu Abraham is not a friends, so ask him to make a pull request for mantis.And after that we(we like community) with combined efforts bring it to v4l-dvb. >> Regards,> Pauli Borodulin>> _______________________________________________> linux-dvb mailing list> linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb -- Igor M.
