CableTV is a CableCrypt decoder for Linux. It has been tested with BT878 cards under kernel 2.2.x and 2.4.x, and provides full decryption of Wiener Telekabel Telekino (Austria), but reported to work with many stations over europe. It works yet only with PAL. Chroma and polarity inversion is supported. It has support for color MMX decoding and b/w x86 assembler decoding.


What's New in This Release:
fixed compile errors with gcc-2.95.x
reduced audio on 10 sec. delay to 1 sec.
support for long options
use pci utils for bt848 address (Manuel Estrada Sainz)
drop root privilege ASAP (Manuel Estrada Sainz)
STRANGE_SYNC_PROBLEMS patch (Manuel Estrada Sainz)
debianized with help from Manuel Estrada Sainz
inline MMX and asm locking stuff, we don't need nasm anymore, yes!
enabled old C decode routine, maybe we get it to run on another platform than i386
made code ANSI C conform, compiles now with -ansi
added initial autoconf support
changed default decode routine to -r4
major code cleanup in cablecrypt-*.c files
add PAL interpolation to C mode (option -r2)
