It works with Brooktree/Conexant and with Philips SAA713x based analog TV cards (I actually recommend using the latter). AFAIK, it is the only properly working app that uses SAA (and unlike bktr, saa never freezes or panics). Also supports webcams that work with the pwcbsd driver. The tarball and some blahblah are now hosted at sourceforge (also still at my website). I also put a "recruitment" message on SF: http://sourceforge.net/people/viewjob.php?group_id=176370&job_id=26247 I want to withdraw from this project, and would love to pass it on to one or more people who are interested in this kind of app, rather than just abandoning it. There is a port for it as well, it would seem logical to hand over maintainership to that as well. It is in a good working state.

I will gladly help you to get started. I crossposted to have maximum exposure, if replying and CC'ing mailing list, please CC to multimedia@ only. Cheers, Dan
