Woohoo! MythTV is working again! Yay!

This would seem to indicate that at least the analog part is Okay and I assume 
the DVB part is just a matter of updating the code to the current layout.

Now I can really go nuts with TV recording... :)

So I guess this means that MythTV *needs* v4l1-compat on v4l2 cards at 
present. I hope that this mail may help others from falling into the trap 
that I did.

/Martin.
