if __name__ == '__main__':
	main()

And MAV_DATA_STREAM_ALL is said to be deprecated as per new MAVLink definitions i went through.I don't have a clue what its consequence is.
And can you help me out?

Instead of MAV_DATA_STREAM_ALL, use MAV_DATA_STREAM_POSITION or one of the others, It will work.

How do I find the serial device option in this. Can you please add an example of usage?
Thanks.
