User:CityK
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, 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
- Reduce fragmentation -- 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
- new features - like sortable tables, news (web, for kernel updates, discussions)
Icons wanted:
- remote control
- television (for software section)
- terrestrial broadcast tower
- sat dish
- usb
- pcmcia
- pci
- pcie
- firewire

Welcome to the LinuxTV Wiki !
|
this welcome section is way toooooo wordy. it needs to be cut down to be short and sweet This wiki is intended to serve as a community focus and reference source for the projects covered under the LinuxTV umbrella/framework. It is hoped that this Wiki will, in time, become an authoritative source of information and support regarding the use of analog video and digital TV sources on Linux. Whether that goal is achieved depends very much upon fellow users and developers such as yourself. Like all other wikis, the LinuxTV wiki relies upon the contributions of its users, and therefore will only be as useful as we make it. As every user of LinuxTV is bound to know something useful in relation to the project's coverage, we encourage you to help with the task of turning this site into a repository of knowledge. 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 -- whatever knowledge you can provide will be highly appreciated. Help ensure that your expertise acquired through dedication and hard work doesn't get lost in the ether, but can instead be passed on to new developers and users alike, and can help to keep free software thriving. Before you BeginBut before you jump in and make your contribution, please first familiarize yourself with the layout of the site. Doing so will likely help you place your information in the right location. As the wiki grows, it takes an increasing amount of effort and discipline to keep it from quickly turning into a tangled mess. So it's up to each of us to make sure the information submitted is easy for everybody to find and access. That said, it is important not to feel offended if, by chance, your contribution is moved to another area of the wiki or if the contents of your entry are edited. 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. Submitters should also know that, to keep the information contained in the wiki free, all contributions are automatically licensed under the GNU General Public License GPL. If you wish, you may specify in each case that your contribution is dual-licensed under the MIT License. Please do not reproduce or submit copyrighted works without obtaining the express consent of the owner or its agent. Lastly, to help keep the wiki free from spam, contributors are required to set up an account and to sign in before they can post to the wiki. (This is a painless process that only takes a few seconds). Now enjoy and have fun! -- The LinuxTV WikiTeam People behind V4L
