A new pvrusb2 snapshot is available. I know it's been quite a long
time. However there's nothing earth-shattering here.
Summary of changes (in no particular order):
(+) Do a better job at guessing the initial video standard to set,
based upon which standards the device reports it can be handle.
Also log this information with a separate debug mask control
bit.
(+) Fix oops that might happen if a devices fails to correctly
initialize (missing a null pointer check).
(+) Improve code which discriminates device types, so that it will
be easier to add other types. This is just a minor cleanup, not
a refactoring.
(+) Implement programmatic mechanism to allow direct retrieval of
device ROM contents.
(+) Update use of cx2341x module to match changed API for kernel
2.6.24 or later or when built against v4l-dvb.
I have in the works some more pervasive changes that will impact the
strategy for how/when the mpeg encoder is stopped / started. This has
the potential to further improve video stability - or it might screw
things up. But I figured it best to get out a snapshot with the above
relatively minor changes first...
