🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

💀 BUGS 💀

ngl, the cxdtv driver lacks support for:

• analog video capture
• analog audio capture
• FM tuning
• the IR receiver

so like… it does the digital video thing and that's it. if you were hoping for any of those four, this is your villain origin story 😭 no cap, it's just not there.

and that's the vibe check, bestie — this page dropped as part of Debian, dated August 13, 2011, so like it's vintage but make it slay 🎀✨ bye 💅
