The MSP3435 on the PVR is attached to an Altera FLEX device. The Altera is an FGPA(?) and needs its firmware for it to work at all. The Windows driver can load the firmware. Also, I've been hacking up a Kfir driver for Linux. Right now, I can load the Altera firmware, but the driver is a royal mess. I need to clean it up a tad before I dare release it (it's based off the work at pvr.sourceforge.net, but w/o all the ugly user/kernel space hacks). Also, is the SA7113 supported in any of the v4l drivers? I can use the one from the Kfir reference driver, but if there is one already... Only thing really left is to find where the hell the ADSP microcode (yes, the PVR has 3 chips that need programming. Two are easy, the third, the ADSP, has it's microcode hidden somewhere...) is hidden in the Windows driver. Once I have that, I can easily test the MPEG capabilities of the Linux driver. Mark
