Thanks for the update, compiling and inserting it worked fine, v4l-info
is now a bit more verbose about the device. However, the same problem
remained with xawtv, and I have no /dev/vbi0, so scantv also fails to
work. I haven't installed any of the firmware files in /lib/firmware,
because this USB device is not in any of the list, was I right?
