Today, we're releasing the version 3.101 of xawtv, with the following fixes:

* Man fix to remove mention of v4l1, and describe libv4l instead
* Fixes at fr/es manuals
* Warning fixes
* Addition of alsa streaming at xawtv: now, for devices with video associated with audio inputs.
* Use X11 editres, instead of its on version, based on a port from a motif library released under a licence that is not GPL compatible
* Add auto-detection logic for xawtv: by default, it will now seek for the first TV device. If not available, fall back to the first grabber device.
* Add auto-detection logic for scanv: by default, it will now seek for the first TV device. If not available, fails.
* Add optional support for libexplain at the v4l2/libv4l driver. Libexplain provides a more complete explanation for the error codes, helping developers to better track what's happened.
* Don't expose tuner commands, on devices that are grabber or webcams at xawtv.

Dmitry Butskoy fixed the manuals and some warnings.

Asterios Dramis pointed to a trouble with a file imported from Motif, used on "motv" with a non-GPL license. The code were replaced to use a X11 library instead.

Hans de Goede fixed the alsa stream code, added the auto-detection mode and fixing more warnings.

Enjoy!
