To be true, I have no idea. This code is part of the plugin since its first
version, and I don´t know why Dominic Morris decided to change the buffers.
Is there a way to do the same with an ivtv module parameter (when loading
the module)?
I commented out the code and it seems to work also (without changing pre-
and num-buffers).
Hans, you wrote on 03.09.06:

If one wants to use the current v4l-dvb hg (like me), there is no other way
than using the trunk!
I have a 2.6.17.8 vanilla kernel with current hg drivers. (Kernel source is
still from 2.6.17)
The trunk version from yesterday compiles fine, but when I load ivtv-fb I
get a message "unknown symbol dma_to_device"
Using the 0.8 instead of the trunk (in v4l-dvb-folder):
CC [M] /video/src/2.6.17.8/v4l-dvb-090906/v4l/ivtv-osd.o

I tried to modify some includes, but eventually I gave up
Using 0.8. out of the v4l-dvb-folder:

You see, we need a working trunk or another branch with works together with
current v4l-dvb!
There is one thing which make me worry: Since some weeks I have freezes
during fast forward jumps (vdr+pvr350-plugin) with the following message in
the log:
Sep 4 20:37:17 linvdr user.info kernel: ivtv0 warning: Failed start decode
stream 5
This problem does not appear with a 2.6.15-kernel and ivtv trunk from
03.06.2006. Any idea?
