[linux-dvb] dvb-apps questions

[Paul]

while I was browsing udev I came up with this primitive way:

cd /sys/class/dvb

f0device=`cat dvb0.frontend0/device/device`
f0vendor=`cat dvb0.frontend0/device/vendor`
echo "frontend0 : v=$f0vendor  dev=$f0device "

lspci -d $f0vendor:$f0device

f1device=`cat dvb1.frontend0/device/device`
f1vendor=`cat dvb1.frontend0/device/vendor`
echo "frontend1 : v=$f1vendor  dev=$f1device "

lspci -d $f1vendor:$f1device

...
which more-or-less gave me what I wanted.. interesting enought the cheaper Airstar PCI 
card performs better then DNTV hybrid

Thanks
