Well, that's more than I've done :-) I was planning on making a start on it soon (not realizing that Nigel had done so much), but I keep getting sidetracked by other things. At the moment I'm playing with a Miro PC TV tuner/capture card (Bt848-based). I've got this thing DMA-ing images straight into my frame buffer :-) Well, I'm available for beta testing, debugging and code review :-)
