Checkout V4L-DVB

Starting from 2006-01-30, V4L and DVB kernel modules are available via -Mercurial.

- -

To get the latest sources from Mercurial, you need:

- -

python-2.3 or upper is required.

- -

Checkout old V4L/DVB CVS tree

- -

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/video4linux login
-(use an empty password)

-

cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/video4linux co -P v4l-dvb

- -

Checkout old DVB CVS tree or other DVB CVS modules

- -

As CVS is mostly used by developers it tracks the latest -rc kernel -and may not compile with older kernels, not even with the last stable release. -We provide a patchset for the latest stable kernel -in the download area.

- -

To get the latest sources from CVS you need to issue the following commands:

- -

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/linuxtv login
-(use an empty password)

-

cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/linuxtv co -P dvb-kernel
-(use any other module you are interested in instead of dvb-kernel, you can check -with viewcvs which modules exist)

- -

If you want to check out the current drivers for the 2.4 kernel, please use: -cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/linuxtv co -P -rlinux_2_4 dvb-kernel
-(use any other module you are interested in instead of dvb-kernel)

- -

Checkout old video4linux CVS tree

- -

This is similar to DVB but uses a different CVSROOT:

-

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/video4linux login

-

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/video4linux co -P v4l-kernel

- -

Update

- -

You can later update your sources by running:

-

cvs -z3 up -dP

- -

Browse the CVS Repository Online

- -

You can browse the files in the CVS repository with viewcvs. You can also -download on-the-fly generated tarballs, but please use this feature sparingly -as it puts a high load on the machine. If you find yourself downloading the -newest sources regularly you should consider using anon-cvs access, as described above.

-

To browse the video4linux CVS select the "v4l" tree in the upper right -of the viewcvs page, or use the link below.

- -

viewcvs DVB

-

viewcvs video4linux
