Unfortunately HAL doesn't seem to support DVB devices. Nor is there a generic way to find a device's /dev node AFAICT; it can only provide that information for devices with a class it knows about. If there's a way to get HAL uids based on /dev node and vice-versa, eg through udev, HAL might work though. -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
