+linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0
+======================
+
+Linux DVB API test/demo applications and utilities.
+
+You find a README in each subdirectory explaining what the code there does.
+For beginners utils/szap/ and utils/scan/ are probably most useful.
+
+For convenience, dvb-apps contains a copy of the DVB API include
+files as they are contained in the linuxtv-dvb-1.1.0 realease
+and the 2.6.x Linux kernel. However, since the DVB API hasn't changed,
+the apps will still work with the old "DVB" drivers, should you decide not
+to use linuxtv-dvb-1.1.0 (or the dvb-kernel CVS).
+
+
+Historical note:
+The apps have been copied from the "DVB" CVS tree, which means that
+the stuff in "DVB" is now unmaintained and out of date.
