Re: [linux-dvb] Fwd: V4L Patches to add DVB support for AVerMedia E506
Ok, here I'm probably pushing my luck but... what are the chances of getting remote control support under linux really? I tried with the instructions on the v4l wiki (http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Remote_controllers#How_to_add_remote_control_support_to_a_card_.28GPIO_remotes.29) and added it to saa7134-cards and -input but it didn't show any reactions to me frantically pressing the keys of my remote btw thanks again for getting the dvb support working. after a week or so I think it's way more stable (meaning it hasn't crashed ever) than the avermedia software and reception seems better too (found some new channels). mimo On Wednesday 19 September 2007 18:51:26 Markus Rechberger wrote: since the mail didn't seem to get through... -- Forwarded message -- From: mimo [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2007 18:47:23 +0100 Subject: Re: V4L Patches to add DVB support for AVerMedia E506 To: Markus Rechberger [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Ed G [EMAIL PROTECTED], linux-dvb@linuxtv.org, [EMAIL PROTECTED], German Gomez [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], dimon-ltd [EMAIL PROTECTED], Carlo Cassinelli [EMAIL PROTECTED], Giovanni Lopedote [EMAIL PROTECTED], Virág János [EMAIL PROTECTED], Vadim Dyadkin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all DVB-T works brilliantly.
