"Bet there are many people looking for a DVB card driver for OpenBSD, a vast Internet search yielded no results to me. Please find an OpenBSD driver for the Skystar-1 DVB receiver card at:

Other DVB cards soon to follow. Have fun!"

Thanks for the work in getting that device supported!

Great to see some video capture capabilities comming to OpenBSD (or just BSD in general). The only TV capture driver I found was FXTV, which only works on older, cheap cards.

  xawtv works very well with OpenBSD, actually way better than fxtv.

    openbsd-based security camera based on frame differentials. why not use obsd to help your physical security as well as your net security?
    or, use a cam and a lavalamp to get REALLY random numbers (http://www.lavarnd.org/)

    "This driver finally makes it possible for OpenBSD users to benefit from one-way satellite data services"
    
    DATA SERVICES != video capture in my world. I'm guessing this is more for DirectPC like offerings (well since it's one way I guess it rules out Starband and ilk).
