I seem to recall that I fixed the zoran kernel driver to work with tv
apps like mplayer, xawtv, and tvtime.  It's not v4l1 only.  The
compressed capture OTOH, I don't think was every updated to work with
V4L2 compressed capture spec.  Probably because lavtools also wasn't
updated to use V4L2 compressed capture.

This driver does serve as a nice reference for any complex video
hardware, since it does uncompressed capture, video overlay, and
compressed capture.  I'm not aware of any other driver than can do all
three.

As these are PCI cards, they can't really be used in newer computers anyway.
