I should have made it clear that the patch is for users of the PVR350 mpeg decoder with MythTV. The bulk of the changes are aimed at ivtv >= 0.10, though there are changes that will affect older versions. If you're having problems with the decoder on 0.7.4, I doubt this patch will fix it, but feel free to try. > If it doesn't work, is one able to remove the patch? There are several ways to remove the patch. Assuming the patch applies without any errors, you can just apply it again using the -R option to reverse it. This means that it won't properly remove from the trunk version, since that only applies with errors. If you grabbed the source via svn, 'cd' to the mythtv source directory & run the following to recover the files. svn revert libs/libmythtv/ivtv_myth.h libs/libmythtv/videoout_ivtv.h \ libs/libmythtv/videodev2_myth.h libs/libmythtv/videoout_ivtv.cpp Another option is to make a backup of the unpatched files & copy them back afterwards. The svn line above lists the files that get changed. I believe that using the -b option with the patch command will backup the files for you. -- Ian _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
