Hi Arved, lme@ directed me from Forum to you for help in: - DVB interface in FreeBSD / Kaffeine - with help from the maintainer of CX88 I finally made it to get a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 1300 with CX88-driver support up and running in FreeBSD (written a HowTo in www.bsdforen.de). Can scan channel and capture DVB-T with cx88 now. Now I tried to use Kaffeine, as recommended for DVB, as a viewer, but it doesn't work at all. Kaffeine doesn't find the device. My postings in the kaffeine-user ML showed that it looks like there is a completely different interfacing in FreeBSD than in Linux. (can that be true?) During analysis I was asked about the expected dvb device /dev/dvb/adpater0/frontend0 but at least in my FreeBSD installation there are only three devices /dev/cx88mpeg0 /dev/cx88video /dev/cx88audio. cx88mpeg0 is the device I can use with cx88 for capturing and it works... The guy in the kaffeine-user ML was wondering even how I was able to compile Kaffeine in FreeBSD... But: that was no problem at all. best regards Axel
