]So Daniel (or anyone), are you working on moving over to the new DVB
]stuff, or would you like some help?

Help would be good ;)

My current priorities are:
 1/ support analog on pcHDTV cards
 2/ signal monitoring, user feedback for tuning
 3/ subtitles for ATSC
 4/ channel scanning for pcHDTV
      for this the DVB db structure would be good
   4.1/ automagic Zap2It setup
 5/ DVB Code merge
 6/ EIT Guide Data insert
 7/ use language info from PSIP + info (blind?, mute is on?, reading level?)
    to select audio track, and subtitles. There are audio tracks for the
    blind, audio tracks in different languages and some recordings have
    multiple sets of subtitles, including simplified ones for children.
 8/ easier setup
      find actual sound outputs we can use..
      find actual resolutions supported by X server..
      detect video capture hardware when possible
      on first install, setup mysql server for user
      set recorder priorities initially to reasonable values
 9/ archive.org video support 
     i.e. scripts to construct guide, automagic downloading
 a/ internet radio support (for stations with guide data)
 b/ get XvMC working for HDTV
 c/ get OSD to look good with bob-deint
 d/ other stuff

If you want to start on the DVB merge, merging the channel data first
would help me with the channel scanning, which I should get to in
a couple weeks. I'm assuming others will work on 6 and 8 before I
get to it, but I'm sure there will still be work to do.

There are probably things I forgot on this list, and I plan to submit 
more cleanup patches along the way...
