Can anyone out there tell me what the best way to move to V4L2 is? I have seen various kernel patches and I am wondering if anyone out there has a step-by-step recipe for patching the kernel for V4L2 capability. I am also concerned about compatibility with older (V4L) drivers, such as the one for the DC10+. Does V4L2 provide downward compatibility with older drivers? I am working with MPEG1 encoding with mp1e (zapping.sf.net) from a bttv card. The author of mp1e says that for best A/V performance and sync, to use V4L2, and I also use a DC10+ (MJPEG card) from time to time as well. I am running the following: RH7.2 with a custom 2.4.18 kernel from kernel.org, PIII 850, 512MB RAM. Thanks in advance, Rett Walters
