Hi all,

You can download ivtv-0.8.1 here:

http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/ivtv/archive/0.8.x/ivtv-0.8.1.tar.gz

And below I have included the changelog. It's fairly big this time with 
quite a few goodies.

I hope to make new releases of the older ivtv versions within a week. It 
is likely that that will be the last updates of ivtv-0.6 and ivtv-0.7. 
I do not intend to continue work on those versions, unless some nasty 
bug is discovered. The same is true for ivtv-0.4, although I'll be a 
bit more active there. I am open for patches that backport changes from 
later ivtv versions to older ivtv versions, but I will not actively 
make them myself.

Enjoy!

ChangeLog 0.8.1 stable release

- vbi test tool accepts -d1 as a shortcut for /dev/video1
- added videodev2.h in utils since distros often are sloppy
  in updating this file in a new kernel release.
- some usability improvements to v4l2-ctl. Please note! Some
  options have new names.
- workaround VIDIOC_INT_S_REGISTER kernel bug (wrong ioctl value
  in the v4l2-common.h header, this is fixed in 2.6.19).
- saa717x fixes for Japanese cards.
- reported pix format was V4L2_PIX_FMT_UYVY instead of 
V4L2_PIX_FMT_HM12.
- added missing VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT ioctl.
- added new IVTV_IOC_STOP ioctl (thanks to Martin Dauskardt 
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
- added new IVTV_IOC_PAUSE_BLACK ioctl (thanks to Martin Dauskardt 
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
  Similar to IVTV_IOC_PAUSE, but it turns the output black when paused.
- Fix encoder pause/resume: these two were swapped.
- Firmware loading has been made more robust
  Thanks to Robert Hardy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
- Firmware loading once again supports ppc.
- Fix nasty bug when loading the init mpeg file
  Thanks to Robert Hardy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
- Enabling of newi2c support now depends on the presence of an 
IR-blaster.
- No longer turn the digitizer off and on when changing channels, this
  caused the tinny audio!
- Fix VIDIOC_STREAMOFF support.
- Detection of Hauppauge cards is now fully based on the tveeprom,
  PCI IDs are ignored. Other cards still use the PCI ID for detection.
- The detection of the first or second unit of a PVR500 is now done 
based
  on the PCI 'slot' used on the PVR500 card. The first unit has slot 8,
  the second has slot 9.
- Added IR-blaster detection, with thanks to Hauppauge's Steven Toth for
  providing this information.
- Fix initial PAL/SECAM/NTSC tuner defaults.
- Fix driver cleanup in case an error occurs.
- Fix VIDIOC_INT_S_AUDIO_ROUTING ioctl.
- Ripped out dynamic buffer allocation: it never worked right and gave
  some people a lot of grief.
- Make i2c errors (missing i2c devices) more readable.
