[linux-dvb] Re: AverMedia DVB-T and bttv module

["Mark Edwards" <mark@edwards.homelinux.net>]

PSSSSST...... please don't credit me in any way with the development of this
driver! Credit is all due to Holger and his band of developers. My
involvement was simply to find the driver and insmod it (with a small patch
to one of the dvb-core modules). I must stress I am due no credit for this
whatsoever - I am grateful to all the developers that put the code together
that helped me get this card working.

Cheers,

Mark (not-a-DVB-driver-developer) Edwards ;-)
