Yes I had noticed that and I was trying to see what I can do.
My problem is that I replace the // FIXME with a printk() and it does not get called
How is it supposed to work?

I open /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0, I get back a file descriptor and the I call the ioctl with that file 
descriptor.

This code comes from gnutv_data.c plus my additional code

		// open dvr device
		dvrfd = dvbdemux_open_dvr(adapter_id, 0, 1, 0);
		if (dvrfd < 0) {
			fprintf(stderr, "Failed to open DVR device\n");
			exit(1);
		}

		if (buffer_size > 0)
		{
		  int res = dvbdemux_set_buffer(dvrfd, buffer_size);
		  if (res < 0) {
		    fprintf(stderr, "Failed to set ring buffer size\n");
		    exit(1);
		  }
		}

Regardless of what is implemented or not, would that be correct?
