Just a very short notice for PVR users and all other users which
need to use something like

   /dev/video24
   /dev/video32

... etc.

Currently there not yet any auto-configuration (I'd need 
your help/feedback/input/PVR-sponsorship in order to determine a 
proper way, unfortunately, I don't have such a card).
However, you can easily manage to set up kradio to use
your card properly:

  1) Configure the Streaming Plugin:
     - add your device to the capture URLs
       (/dev/video24, /dev/video32 and /dev/urandom 
        should already be there)
     - configure the right sound sample format/rate/... for
       your radio card
  2) Configure the V4L2 Plugin:
     - Select your favourite PCM Sound Card as playback device
     - Select your favourite PCM Mixer Channel as playback channel
     - Select the Streaming Plugin as Capture Device
     - Select the radio/video device (e.g. /dev/video24) as
       capture mixer channel
     - enable the active playback checkbox. KRadio will now
       record from the capture channel internally (not to a file)
       and send the data to the playback PC channel.

Done. Your kradio should be now usable for PVR cards.
If not, please provide me details on your setup or perhaps 
even a card to test it.
