I've already sent those patches a few times with very little feedback. I have not understood who is the maintainer of the common code in dvb-core. Could someone please let me know if I am wasting my time and the patches are not good or irrelevant. Here is (again) a brief description of the patches and where to find them. 1) Patch number 1 is to fix a bug when shrinking the demux buffer. This bug causes the kernel to crash completely http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-March/024828.html http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-March/024833.html http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-March/024839.html 2) The second patch is about the implementation of the ioctl DMX_SET_BUFFER_SIZE for the dvr. The ioctl call is currently available but not implemented. Currently the default is 192522 which lasts only about 1 sec when saving the whole TS. http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-March/024829.html http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-March/024834.html http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-March/024840.html I look forward to receiving some feedback.
