It's irritating that I have to tell this to people repeatedly, and I'm sure its even more irritating for others that have to constantly read my complaints about it. Nothing against you -- please don't top-post in the future. Anyway, Damien.... Please try the latest driver in the v4l-dvb master branch -- recent changesets have improved driver performance, and you should not have the problems anymore that you have described, above. The AU-specific firmware images have been deprecated, in favor of a much better driver that works regardless of location. Standard firmware is not used, instead. -Mike _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
