Maybe an idea for the future. Abstract binaries a bit more so that they are independent of the Linux header files and other kernel functions. Then I wouldn't have to do the decompile. The other DVB-T adapter I had before outputted somtimes corrupted or too long USB packets on the isochronous endpoint when the bitrate was going too high. I do no longer see this problem with the adapter supported by Max's driver. And I am satisfied. Regarding you and "Konstantin Dimitrov" I don't want to have any opinion about what product is best. --HPS
