Hello all,

   Keep finding these DVD things in the _directory_ called /dev/video:

crw-------    1 root     root      10, 204 Mar 23 23:38 em8300
crw-------    1 root     root      10, 206 Mar 23 23:38 em8300_ma
crw-------    1 root     root      10, 205 Mar 23 23:38 em8300_mv
crw-------    1 root     root      10, 207 Mar 23 23:38 em8300_sp

Thought the /dev/video was supposed to be a Link to one of the
/dev/video[0-N]

Did see it listed in the Devices.txt, but not sure about the
co-habitation 
with other v4l devices.  

AFAIK, I dont have a DVD decoder hardware, but the IDE CD is listed as
CD/DVD 
player.  Does this mean I should start buying DVD's, and using these
software (?)
decoding devices?

Thanks
