Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 0/6] [media] Add analog mode support for Medion MD95700

Hi Maciej,

First my apologies for the long delay in reviewing, I'll try to do better
next time.

Anyway, I'll take patches 1, 2 and 4 now. I commented on patch 3, that definitely
can be improved. Same for patch 6: that can be made a lot more generic.

Regards,

	Hans
