I'm cross-posting this at V4L mailing list, since this subject is better handled at V4L list. The basic idea for shapshot is to provide a stable snapshot of V4L from my point of view. It doesn't mean that it will works with every kernel release. If you guys are willing to

So surely what we need then is a statement that as of 0.6 (or whatever it's called when it is released) ivtv is compatible with kernel 2.6.xx (15?) or requires this release of v4l2. This would of course mean that probably we would want a kernel v4l2 release to happen before we can release ivtv

2005-11-09 Thread Hans Verkuil
That's correct. It won't be released until either 2.6.15 is released and/or a stable v4l2 is released. The video4linux project makes regular releases, so we pick one that works and recommend that one to build against. Remember: 0.4.x will remain for quite some time as the branch to use for
