Hi Dischi,
Looking forward to this update. In the mean time I wonder if there is
any way I can get dvb-t over usb working? (What I mean is, is the code
*very* broken? I thought you've been using this for some time now?)
My hardware died; and I picked up a ps3 to replace it. I was under
the impression that a ps3 had enough "guts" to drive 2D (ie desktop or
video) at 720p; but my experience is not the case. There is library
in devlopement to accelerate video scaling etc called spumedialib, and
there is a mplayer only driver which uses it. This means my short
term goal is to try to get freevo2 working with it's native dvb-t code
(recordserver, straight to mpeg2 right?); and use the new mplayer vo
to drive it.
I wonder if this is possible given the current state of code, or if a
major rewrite is required before the tvdev for dvb will work? If it's
just device discovery that's broken I should be able to hack my way
around that..
