[linux-dvb] Re: How to use a bt8xx chip based card?

[Demeter Tibor <tdemeter@net-working.hu>]

Hello Nico !

Where found this mplayer patch ?
Now i'm hear the "click" sound,  but the dvb stream not read the stream 
from the device.

The DVB-1.0.0pre3 not supported my card, this card only support the 
dvb-kernel driverset.

Thank you
