Keep in mind that we want to get rid of these separately maintained modules
anyway, so I would suggest to see if we cannot just copy the video4linux
sources instead. The latest cvs versions have all the missing tuners in, so
there is no reason left to keep our own version.
I'm trying to do the same with tveeprom right now. So if you could do that
with the tuner module and tda9887 then that would help a lot. Any
improvements over the video4linux sources should go there, not here. That
includes changes to make it compile for 2.4, BTW. I asked and although the
2.4 support is currently broken, they think it should be fixed.
If you think of questions to ask Hauppauge, then please mail them to me. I'm
also adding questions myself and when I have enough I'll send them on to Axel
Thimm, who sends them on to his contact with Hauppauge. They're quite
helpful, so don't hesitate. One question relevant to this on my list is how
to detect what PAL or SECAM variant one has to use.
