[PATCH] dvb: Updated documentation for FusionHDTV Lite cards
- Updated documentation for FusionHDTV Lite cards. We must differentiate
the bt8xx based "Lite" cards from the cx2388x based "Gold" cards.
- Provide location of CARDLIST.bttv Documentation, rather than
instructing users to look at bttv.h
- Include card decimal id numbers. These are valid for module arguments,
and might be easier for some people to remember, rather than hex.
