A new pvrusb2 snapshot is available.
Performance/feature-wise things should be the same as the last snapshot.
These are rearrangements to make it easier to add new device support to
the driver. Specific changes:
(+) Add device_hardware_type and device_hardware_description nodes
to the sysfs interface. Reading these files will return a
single token (for device_hardware_type) or a one line
description (for device_hardware_description), based on the
actual device type being operated.
(+) Collect all information that describes specific device types and
move it all into a single module (pvrusb2-devattr.c). No more
scattered logic that tries to adjust behavior on perceived
device type. Instead, a central descriptor contains information
about device attributes which is then used through the driver to
tailor the correct behavior.
(+) Implement concept of device-specific audio / video routing
scheme. It is possible now to specify the signal routing scheme
as part of the device description - making possible support of
other devices which use different routing schemes.
