The first preliminary version of the driver with support for video4linux2 and which uses the new videodev kernel sublayer (which I'll call videodev2) rather than the old videodev sublayer (videodev1). The new videodev2 sublayer is introduced in kernel 2.4.19 and 2.5.x and is a prerequisite of video4linux2.
Other changes include prelimiary support for the DC30/DC30plus cards, which is also still being worked on. All credits for this work go to Wolfgang Scherr and Laurent Pinchart.
Lastly, this driver version introduces a new kernel sublayer - videocodec. It is also still work-in-progress. The main goal of videocodec is to make the modules of image encoder/decoder chips (like the zr36060 on the DC10+/Buz/LML33 or the zr36016/zr36050 on the DC30) reusable for other drivers. This should make these modules more generic, easier to reuse and should make programming with them more unified and thus easier. Credits for this work go to Laurent as well.

Warning! All code here is considered to be in alpha/beta state. Most lowlevel code (registry settings) has not changed, but everything that goes beyond that has changed, basically. Do not use this code in a stable production environment. Testers are, of course, welcome, and we welcome any bugreports.

A whole bunch of changes. But now the ditsributed encoding sould work and the script generation.

Add the chrominance color rotation (extremely useful). Last release before yuvcorrection program

a the patch from Steven M. Schultz, that disables the sharpening of the images if -S is set to 0.
Also improves the encoding speed of yuvdenoise.

Here is the original patch:

James Klicman's Altivec patches for mpeg2enc.

Merge fixes from 1.6.1 branch + change version number to 1.7.0

Updates for 1.6.1

Changed some smaller part for better understanding

more complete now, but still not sufficiently complete

add -O DVD, -I CHROMINANCE AND LUMINANCE keywords, removed the file reading capabilities (do not duplicate lav2yuv), code cleaning
