Hi all :) I am from GATOS project (http://www.linuxvideo.org/gatos ). We now have a small v4l capture module that works with Radeon All-in-Wonders. It's a first cut so, naturally, I have some questions: * in the card the alternating TV fields (odd and even) are captured in two separate buffers. Right now the module presents them as consequetive frames (so that NTSC stream 640x480@30hz interlaced becomes 640x240@60hz), which is wrong. How do I tell through v4l interface that every other frame is odd one ? * what are the features most desired in a v4l driver ? * if someone can give some links to capture tools/encoders etc for compatibility testing this would be much appreciated * do we need to get a define in videodev.h ? how many ? (there are different All-in-Wonder cards: mach64, Rage128, Radeon and they come with different decoder chips). * is there an issue of latency versus number of buffers versus reserved space ? Any comments from people who care about such stuff ? thanks Vladimir Dergachev
