<h1>Projects in LinuxTV.org CVS</h1>
<h2>DVB drivers and utilities</h2>
<p>
The DVB drivers which are included in mainline 2.6 kernels
are maintained in the dvb-kernel CVS module. The linux_2_4
branch of dvb-kernel contains drivers for 2.4 kernels. Note, however,
that newer drivers will be added to 2.6 first and will not necessarily
be backported.
</p>
<p>
A small number of DVB test and utility programs,
including szap and dvbscan, are in
the CVS module dvb-apps.
</p>
<p>
The dvb-kernel-v4 CVS module contains an updated DVB core
subsystem and one prototype driver for the revised
Linux DVB API V4. More info on the V4 API
can be found in the Wiki.
</p>
<p>
The CVS module "DVB" contains older drivers
for the 2.4 kernel. They are mostly of historic interest.
</p>
<h2>libsoftmpeg</h2>
<p>
libsoftmpeg is a ffmpeg/libavcodec based software mpeg decoder
library. It currently uses DirectFB and FusionSound for
video and audio rendering, but the code is structured
in an way which makes it easy to add different rendering methods.<br>
A VDR plugin is included.
</p>
<h2>MPEG2 multiplexer</h2>
<p>
An ISO-13818 compliant multiplexer for generating MPEG2
transport and program streams, developed and maintained
by Oskar Schirmer. The TS multiplexer is able to run
continously, with dynamically adjustable input streams
for live broadcast.<br>

<h2>DSM-CC/MHP object carousel generator</h2>
<p>
MPEG2 elementary stream encoding tools for DSM-CC MHP ObjectCarousels.<br>
What the <a href="dsmcc-mhp-tools.php">dsmcc-mhp-tools</a> support:<br>
<ul>
<li> generation of an ObjectCarousel
<li> generation of (continuous) NPT descriptor streams
<li> generation of StreamEvent descriptors
<li> generation of AIT
<li> generation of PMT
<li> distribution of an ObjectCarousel over multiple PIDs (DataCarousels)
<li> incremental ObjectCarousel updates
</ul>
</p>
<h2>dietlibc</h2>
<p>
A mirror of the diet libc CVS. The main repository can be
found on <a href="http://www.fefe.de/dietlibc/">www.fefe.de</a>.
</p>
<h2>DVB-USB2 hardware prototype</h2>
<p>
Schematics, firmware and driver sources for an USB2 DVB-T adapter
prototype.
</p>
<h2>Philips Empress / Kfir MPEG2 encoder card drivers</h2>
<p>
A driver for the Visiontech Kfir based encoder card which used to be
manufactured by <a href="http://www.bmk-electronics.de/">BMK electronics</a>.<br>
Note: So far this driver supports 2.4 kernels only.
</p>
<p>
The newer MPEX card by BMK is supported by drivers in the mainline 2.6 kernel.
</p>
<p>
Both Kfir and MPEX cards are now out of production, but there is some
<a href="bmk-order.php">legacy information</a> still available.
</p>
<h2>Margi/Billionton MPEG decoder PC card drivers</h2>
<p>
An old driver for a "DVD to go" MPEG2 decoder PC card, including
zoomed video support.
