Is this the same bit that I posted a patch for 2.6.17 kernels a few months ago? Looked something like this: --- tuner-types.c 2006-08-27 10:52:28.000000000 -0700 +++ tuner-types.c.patched 2006-08-27 10:53:05.000000000 -0700 @@ -995,9 +995,9 @@ /* ------------ TUNER_SAMSUNG_TCPN_2121P30A - Samsung NTSC ------------ */ static struct tuner_range tuner_samsung_tcpn_2121p30a_ntsc_ranges[] = { - { 16 * 130.00 /*MHz*/, 0xce, 0x01, }, - { 16 * 364.50 /*MHz*/, 0xce, 0x02, }, - { 16 * 999.99 , 0xce, 0x08, }, + { 16 * 130.00 /*MHz*/, 0xce, 0x01+4, }, + { 16 * 364.50 /*MHz*/, 0xce, 0x02+4, }, + { 16 * 999.99 , 0xce, 0x08+4, }, }; Anyhow, just to be sure I wasn't missing anything, I upgraded to 2.6.18 and ivtv 0.8.0. It didn't seem to change anything. > better than what's offered by the 2.6.18 kernel is unlikely to > happen. It should be equivalent to what the Windows driver does. You never know what a different set of eyes might discover. Isn't the whole philosophy of open source software that we all work together to achieve a better result?
