[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] corrected probe in vidix ivtv-driver

Hi,

  On my system with one PVR150 (/dev/video0) and a PVR350 (/dev/video1) 
the detection of the YUV-decoder (/dev/video49) and corresponding 
framebuffer (/dev/fb1) of the PVR350 fails.
  Now it does the following:

1. scan the pci-bus for the PVR350
2. test the environment variables VIDIXIVTVVIDEODEV and 
VIDIXIVTVFRAMEBUFFERDEV for user selected devices (needed if multiple 
PVR350 are present)
3. if they are not set, scan /sys/class/video4linux/video* resp. 
/dev/video* for an ivtv-driven device with YUV-decoder capabilites
4. scan /sys/class/graphics/fb* resp. /dev/fb* for the right 
framebuffer-device (see v4l2-spec for an example)

  Hope this helps somebody.

  I'll send the same patch to the vidix-ML, but it's rather quiet over 
there. And because I need it in mplayer, I'll send it here too, so it 
won't get lost.

Lars.
