new to this list

Hi I'm new to this list.I've used the packet-cd patch until my last kernel-upgrade and was very impressed.it allowed me to record videos to a cdrw in realtime using ffmpeg. great!. Well but it was very hard for me to change the kernel. and i can't even find the newer kernel patches. well now that i am in this list i'll update to the 2.4.18 version some of you seem to be using. but where is it? Another thing: I read that cdrs will be supported as soon as the cdrw support works nicely. well imho that time has come and i'd be so very happy if i could record tv to cdrs intead of rw. very great woork you did. Thanks Jonas
