Only what comes with it I think. The doc directory in the source is worth a look. This is also worth a look: http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Main_Page The driver has been in such a rapid state of development that any documentation would quickly be out of date. It is considerably more mature lately. The mythtv mailing list archives are also a very good source of knowledge. I would say that a very big percentage of people using these cards under linux do so in a mythtv box. The archives are very good and appear here: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/ simply running ivtvctl | less gives you a good idea of what you can control. -- Nick Rout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
