Ok, understood.

My original project page is
http://www.gdv.uni-hannover.de/~hunold1/linux/saa7146/index.html
but that's rather uninteresting for DVB users.

You can find an explanation of the current DVB driver situation at
http://linuxtv.org/dvb/drivers.xml

The important point missing there is to clearly state the switch from 
v4l1 to v4l2 and a list of application that work.

Ok, I'll add it to the TODO list.
