Description Sven Wegener gentoo-dev 2004-01-10 19:16:32 UTC
Hi,

dunetools is a package that allows userspace access to
Pinnacle PCTV Deluxe. Currently there exists no real driver
for it.

dunetools uses libusb to access Pinnacle PCTV Deluxe in
userspace and has to be run as root. The ebuild installs
dunerec not suid root, because it is a security risk.
Using the -R <outputfile> option any user could overwrite
any file on the target system.

dunerec delivers an MPEG stream which can directly piped to a player, e.g.
dunerec -R - <options> | mplayer -framedrop -vo x11 -

dunetools requires the firmware files from the Pinnacle PCTV Deluxe CD
to run. I think it is impossible for the developers to test and maintain this
package, if they don't have access to a PCTV Deluxe. I own one, so
I could maintain the package if I'm a developer. :)

The SRC_URI doesn't points to the official location, because the author
only provides a file without version info, so I made a date-stamped version
and put it online.

For more information about PCTV Deluxe see

Wrong LICENSE

According to README.txt these programs are freeware. Best fit
is "free-noncomm".

Well, just noticed that there's a category media-tv,
which is the best fit for this package :)

Are you still interested in this? :) If not, WONTFIX please, thanks.
