No, not yet, and I'm not sure he will like having this sent to him, he stepped back from v4l developement due to new assignmenets some months ago :( > The tuner/tveeprom modules packed in with ivtv seem to cause confusion > in addition to duplicated work.

There were reports that even after the merger msp3400 in ivtv worked better. I agree with Tyler, we should try and push as much as possible back to v4l. OTOH having a copy of these in the developement tree is good as often new tuners need to be added etc. How about agreeing on having interim copies in developement versions but pushing these upstream when a release is going to be cut? -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
