What about open-sourcing support for the other devices you're talking about? > If you want to get a device with kernel support I recommend buying a > different one and let that one go back to our community (since our > tuners and support are still quite popular). Thanks, but I'd rather stick with the device I have than spending more money to have a device that only works with a closed-source driver. Anyway, I just saw that the patch doesn't apply cleanly against linux-media master. I'll submit a new version of the patch in a minute. Cheers Thomas
