Thanks to Achim Lange.
Now I think Multidec is Multidec and LinuxTV for DVB is its self too.They are two
different things.Because it is not possible to port the not-open-soured dll to
Linux,let it be.Let's just discuss topics basesd on Linux.There are many hacks about
DVD,smartcard etc. but I think we should never discuss these kind of topics on this
LOVELY mailinglist.There are so many smart and interesting people on this list.
