Jason, thanks for this. I have only a cursory understanding of the udev rules, can you give me an example for using your script. I have a /dev/video0 and /dev/video1 device which are pointed to by /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000:01:06.0-video-index0 and index1 symlinks.<br>
I've found /lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-v4l.rules but I'm not sure which two devices I'm telling your script about - the script asks for an old device and new device.<br>In mythtv-setup, i've got dvb devices 0-3 which keep changing (don't know how they are referenced!) I'm typing all this to try and document it better for the next "bloke" who thinks he knows what hes doing :-) So thanks for the script, just need a wee nudge.<br>
Regards<br>Barry<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/7/17 Jason Taylor <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:killerkiwi2005@gmail.com">killerkiwi2005@gmail.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
