[apologises to those of you on both lists- you probably got this twice. I just
realised i sent to the wrong list]

Having just gotten a DVD player for my system which came with a Sigma Hollywood
Plus (ugh - another reason to keep windows on my box), I would definitely have
an interest in seeing someone get it working in Linux.

I'd offer to do it myself, but I must admit my C is pretty subpar and rusty,
and I have no experience writing device drivers. However if someone would
undertake the project I'd be willing to offer what help i can.

Although I guess we would still need DVD Player software for linux once the
card was driven.
hmmm.
Anyone know if theres a project out there to write a Software based DVD Player?

Has anyone tried getting programming specifications for RealMagic MPEG decoding boards from Sigma Designs (www.sigma-designs.com)?
