[Kwintv] New to the list

[Pedro de Carvalho Gomes]

Dirk,

I have downloaded the fryday night snapshot from cvs. Many crashes (ok, 
that's why this is not a release). I got pal-m listed if I go to scan 
the manually select a channel. But the automatic channel detection did 
not work. The wizard dialogo did not show the green "ok to scan" 
propriety. I have faced some ui errors too. For example, kdetv list 3 
devices:
- v4l2
- v4l
- Xv something (i don't remember)
When I selected to edit the v4l config the UI freezes.

This is not a complain or anything. Just impressions from the HEAD 
snapshot. I will try to figure out some of those problems this weekend. 
I'll keep you informed

Pedro
