+ <para>This document covers the Linux Kernel to Userspace API's used by
+ video and radio straming devices, including video cameras,
+ analog and digital TV receiver cards, AM/FM receiver cards,
+ streaming capture devices.</para>
+ <para>It is divided into three parts.</para>
+ <para>The first part covers radio, capture,
+ cameras and analog TV devices.</para>
+ <para>The second part covers the
+ API used for digital TV and Internet reception via one of the
+ several digital tv standards. While it is called as DVB API,
+ in fact it covers several different video standards including
+ DVB-T, DVB-S, DVB-C and ATSC. The API is currently being updated
+ to documment support also for DVB-S2, ISDB-T and ISDB-S.</para>
+ <para>The third part covers other API's used by all media infrastructure devices</para>
+ <para>For additional information and for the latest development code,
+ see: <ulink url="http://linuxtv.org">http://linuxtv.org</ulink>.</para>
+ <para>For discussing improvements, reporting troubles, sending new drivers, etc, please mail to: <ulink url="http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-media">Linux Media Mailing List (LMML).</ulink>.</para>
