I am using the Linux driver that comes with Suse 9.1 (not CVS) and Firmware 261d. To use the extra 2MB SDRAM i found a hint at http://www.vdr-portal.de saying to change dvbosd.c: --- snip --- #define MAXOSDMEMORY 1000000 ---snip --- from the default 92000. I guess this does not help in 1.3.21 to use the FW_NEEDS_BUFFER_RESERVE_FOR_AC3. How and where can i configure 1. a statement OSD_CAP_MEMSIZE and 2. FW_NEEDS_BUFFER_RESERVE_FOR_AC3 Maybe in Make.config? Or in dvbosd.c / transfer.c? Like i said, i am using some old linux dvb drivers and i can not update to CVS for various reasons at the moment. > -- > Helmut Auer, helmut@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Best regards, Marcus Merz
