[vdr] Re: [ANNOUNCE] Howto upgrade a full-featured dvb-s card to 4 MByte SDRAM

[tinconn@virgilio.it]

Hallo all,
into the web page linked in the first email i read:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Full-featured DVB cards are shipped with a single 2 MByte SDRAM chip. Using
theLinuxDVB driver, OSD memory space is limited to approx. 80 KByte. Therefore,
it is not possible to have a full-screen, 256 color OSD with VDR. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My question is after the update of the card, the space for osd is 80Kb of
original sdram + 2Mb of new sdram?
