I totally agree with you. > Im not necessarily suggesting dumping stv0900, but Id like to flip a > few cards that I own over to stv090x just to standardize it. The Prof > 7301 and Prof 7500. I did it already for 7301, see here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/28082 but due to 'political' reasons it doesn't went upstream. For private use i am still using this patch on recent kernels, because it is working much more stable for my card comparing to stv0900. I think that moving prof 7500 should be relative easy, i even prepared a patch for this but I was not able to test it due to lack of hardware. > Whats everyones thoughts on this?

Ive got alot more coming lol :) Oh yes, you could also take into account another duplicate code: stb6100_cfg.h used for stv090x stb6100_proc.h used for stv0900 In my patch I've successfully switched to stb6100_cfg.h. > > Chris > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > regards, -- Mariusz Białończyk | xmpp/e-mail: manio@xxxxxxxxxx http://manio.skyboo.net | https://github.com/manio -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
