It is a user space driver, not a kernal v4l driver.

It seems like it should be possible to use the test app with mythtv. I 
think there is a external recorder option in 0.28 that may work with 
this?? I am really interested in getting this working as my hdpvr 1 will 
sometimes decide to have a couple of days problems (lockups needing 
power cycling, 0 byte recordings, etc...) followed by many weeks of no 
issues....
Does anyone know the status of 0.28? Is it stable enough to be used? or 
is the external recorder option something that can be back ported to 0.27?
