Given the changes the 800i driver have been through, you will be much better off if you use the latest code available at http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb As of this morning, all patches related to the 800i so far have been merged into the master tree above, so it should work without problems. The only time that one may consider not using the master tree is when you know for sure that there are patches related to your device that have not been merged. If you still cannot get it working, post here. Good luck! -- Chaogui Zhang _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
