Hi Isaac,

Having done that and insuring that I didn't receive a compile time warning at 
mpegrecorder.cpp regarding v4l2, I still cannot see a "Hardware MPEG Encoder" 
selection in the setup program.  I do see these errors, however:

QDir::readDirEntries: Cannot read the directory: /dev/v4l
QDir::readDirEntries: Cannot read the directory: /dev/sound

I did apply the patch-2.4.20-kraxel.tar.gz from April 10th, 2003.  I've 
insured that videodev.h has the v4l2 define in there.

What else should I check?

Thanks,

Andy
