[MPlayer-users] Support for ivtv driven tv cards?

[Thomas Zehetbauer]

Are there any plans to provide better support for ivtv driven tv cards 
that provide a tuner but do not support the buffer interface and supply 
a mpeg stream instead?

Currently you have to tune the card using ivtv-tune and then call 
"mplayer /dev/video0". Most other v4l players do not yet support mpeg at 
all so I guess mplayer / mencoder would be the perfect candidate for 
pioneering this feature. I guess it should be easy to support the 
tv://channel syntax and then call the mpeg decoder instead.
