This is my sandbox. Being a sandbox, everything you see here is a work in progress. However, my intention should be pretty clear from the content.
But if my intention isn't clear, here's what I propose:
- Unification
- avoid duplication of effort (inter-duplication), more efficient
- One stop shop
- More user friendly, spawn more interest
- more info (beyond supported -- spawns interest in new projects?)
- Co-ordination - / oversight ... reaching critical mass
- Formalize entries .... slightly pedantic, but necessary (think library -- they don't just throw things on shelves)
- Reduce subject fragmentation -- common problem
- Reduce duplication (intra-duplication) -- common problem --> USB example of insanity
- User Accounts / Logons
- Exporting History and discussions -- preserve
- more inviting (web and wiki)
- branding (common)
- unified look and feel (wikitable)
- new features - like sortable tables, news (web, for kernel updates, discussions)

Welcome to the LinuxTV Wiki !
|
This wiki is intended to become an authoritative source of information regarding the use of analog video and digital TV sources under Linux -- i.e. the subject matters covered under the LinuxTV umbrella/framework. The basic plan is to aggregate information about: available hardware; how v4l or dvb work; software used with the hardware and so forth. Like all other wikis, the LinuxTV wiki relies upon the contributions of its users. Hence, it will only be as useful as we make it! So we encourage you to share your knowledge and help with the task of turning this site into a repository of knowledge. Your input (whether it be by providing a set of instructions for how to get a certain device working; a minor improvement to an existing article; or an explanation for some complex concept) will be highly appreciated. -- The LinuxTV WikiTeam [People behind V4L] |

If you make a contibution and later find that your submission has been edited or moved to another area of the wiki, please don't feel offended. Everyone understands and appreciates the time and efforts you took, but bear in mind that a factual and well-organized resource for everyone interested in analog or digital TV is the ultimate aim of the LinuxTV wiki.
