The saa7134 has another sample frequency, maybe the algorithms in libzvbi need some fine-tuning. > Interesting. Do all cards have those? Do you have a list of chips/cards > which support this? There is a enginering sample from philips (the "EMPRESS") with a mpeg encoder chip. Recently i've read in the german computer mag c't that KNC One has a saa7134-based card with digital tv (dvb) support, I expect they use the TS xfer feature too for the mpeg stream. > will the driver be integrated into the 2.4.x kernels or will it > only go in the 2.5 series? Probably 2.5.x only. Gerd -- You can't please everybody. And usually if you _try_ to please everybody, the end result is one big mess. -- Linus Torvalds, 2002-04-20
