| Linux Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) subsystem |
| ============================================= |
| |
| The main development site and CVS repository for these |
| drivers is http://linuxtv.org/. |
| |
| The developer mailing list linux-dvb is also hosted there, |
| see http://linuxtv.org/lists.php. Please check |
| the archive http://linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/ |
| and the Wiki http://linuxtv.org/wiki/ |
| before asking newbie questions on the list. |
| |
| API documentation, utilities and test/example programs |
| are available as part of the old driver package for Linux 2.4 |
| (linuxtv-dvb-1.0.x.tar.gz), or from CVS (module DVB). |
| We plan to split this into separate packages, but it's not |
| been done yet. |
