Very nice. I was also toying with the idea to rename 'IVTV' in these defines 
to something different, but that makes too much of a mess. I think it is 
sufficient to add a sentence to the spec along the lines of:

"This format was first introduced in the ivtv driver, hence the use of IVTV 
in these defines. It is however not limited to the ivtv driver, any MPEG 
encoder can use it."

And I think that it also doesn't hurt if some of my explanations from my 
earlier email are added to the spec as well. The format looks really weird 
if you do not understand the PVR350 (cx23415) limitation.

Regards,

        Hans
