Good morning.
I have the Pinnacle PRO Stick installed from em28xx-new.
Sometimes, when I plug in the device, and start tvtime, i get tvtime
error saying
"Failed to open /dev/video0".
The curious thing is that opening xawtv and then closing it and
reopening tvtime solves
the problem and tvtime works...
Another issue is that using kaffeine on the same device, closing it and
opening tvtime causes various crashes, which may vary from X server crashes to
kernel complete freeze.
Another question: when will the em28xx-new be merged to v4l-dvb?
Is there an easy way to stay informed of the driver changes and
corrections, so that it
makes sense to download and upgrade to the latest version of the drivers??
Thanks a lot for Your kind attention
Giacomo
First let me say I am not main developer, but i can answer your questions.
When insering the device it takes a while before it is fully settled.
Also when using multiple aplications on the same device, it can go
wrong. (it should not do this, but it does)
for the merging questions see this tread:

for the information about code and hopefully documentation changes:
