Hi,
************************************
* Bt848/Bt878 Driver 1.73 Released *
************************************

Bt848/Bt878 driver release 1.73 - 10th Sepetember 1999
is now available for download from the usual place at

  http://telepresence.dmem.strath.ac.uk/bt848

The driver will work with FreeBSD 2.2.5, 2.2.6, 2.2.7, 2.2.8,
2.2-stable,
FreeBSD 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.x-stable, and FreeBSD 4.x.
It _should_ also work on BSDi, NetBSD and OpenBSD.


Whats new since release 1.68
1) VBI support is now great. I strongly recomend the AleVT Teletext
decode program in
   /usr/ports/misc/alevt
   There is no need to resize FXTV now. Just start Alevt, then start
FXTV and teletext
   works great.
2) MSP3430 audio support.
   North American users of Hauppauge cards with MSP3430 DBX chips are
supported.
3) Autodetect of new STB Bt878 cards. No audio support yet.
4) Support new Hauppauge Tuner types
5) Add Card Type for AIMs Labs Video Highway Xtreme.
6) Patches from NetBSD, OpenBSD, BSDi integrated. One source file for
all OSs.


NOTE On release 1.72
Release 1.72 is in 3.x-stable and will ship with FreeBSD 3.3-R.
It lacks Hauppauge tuner type 6 and Video Highway Xtreme card types.

4.x-CURRENT.
Release 1.73 is checked in to the source now, so you will get it in your
next CVS update.


Bye
Roger
