And this version doesn't work, as > stated in my first message. No, no. There have been a *lot* of changes between 2.7.0 and 2.8.0. What I want you to do is revert a very small portion of these changes on your 2.8.0 version, and see what happens. If it is enough to make it work (which means it is functionally equivalent to the changes you proposed), it would give us a point to start from. > > Also, could you tell us which chip driver is used for your tv > > encoder?

I *hate* it when people use our modules, modify them and don't even take the time to tell us about their changes. Don't they understand how free software works, or what? :( > Maybe you could just put this patch in a contrib directory, for > further evalution... I don't know.... We don't really have such a directory, but we still can give the patch to anyone contacting us with the same problem as you have. > I just thought I sould send it to you, because it took me a lot of > time to get it working.... Yeah of course, I understand. It's always great to solve that kind of problem and you are very welcome to share your experience with us. All I meant is that we can't apply patches just because one use says it works for him/her. We need to know why it works, especially if the change does not match the specs, as it seem to be the case here. Anyway, I am not the one who will handle that, I don't know enough about bus drivers to do so. Philip Edelbrock and Mark D. Studebaker will probably be more helpful than me. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
