- dvb-0.3.9 (=0.4.0beta)
!!WARNING!!
This version is only released because some people are anxiously waiting
for better recording/playback (i.e. without lock ups :-) and support for
CI. You probably will not get much out of it if you are not a programmer.
!!WARNING!!
There is a new config file format which is explained in DVB/doc/channel.
gVideo does not support this or encrypted channels yet (and no, the record
and playback buttons also do not do anything yet).
You have to use the library and test programs in DVB/libdvb to do channel
searching and to get encrypted channels (You also need a CI module and a
working smart card of course.)
Please do not ask for details about the test programs in DVB/libdvb or
complain if they do not compile/work/whatever. They were never intended to
be released. If you are not a programmer yourself, please wait for the real
0.4.0 release.
CyberLogin is also not up to date. I read the patches in the mailing list
and also got a new version from Diego. I still have to merge all of this
into one new version.
If you are not using a current 2.3.x kernel you will also have to use an
older version of i2c-core.c.
Copy it from /usr/src/linux/driver/char if you use 2.3.x or from the last
DVB driver release if you use 2.2.x.
