Description Patrik Huber 2004-02-21 13:18:55 UTC

I would like to see an ebuild for USB Vision drivers in portage. It provides an interface to different devices like Pinnacle Studio PCTV USB, Hauppauge WinUSB, 	X10 Video Camera, etc. More details on sf.net or also here: http://www.emuit.com/webcamtable.html
I myself own a PCTV Deluxe and would therefore like to see this driver in portage. I can't write the ebuild myself because I'm neither a developer nor do I know how to write an ebuild :-)

You should create an ebuild for this and attach it here,
that will improve chances to get it included officially.

Comment 2 Alan Hourihane 2007-08-01 10:44:32 UTC

The code at usbvision on sourceforge is excessively out of date, and over 4 years old now.

I'm guessing it's been dropped, so there's probably not much point moving forward with an ebuild for this.
