Hi Patrick, Thanks for some clarifications, they are invaluable.

There are 8 MPEG decoders and two live video surfaces. All TS channels can go to a mpeg decoder directly OR can be placed in a ringbuffer so that it can be sent to userspace (DVR perhaps) My aim is to create a skeleton DVB device (that works with my hardware) with documentation so that others dont have to learn the lessons I have :D It sounds easy, but I doubt it is..
