Re: Frame grabbers with bt8x8 chipset

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Well, unlike all of you guys, I'm not a guru in either Linux or frame
grabbers. I am forced to learn because of my work requirements. I'll
probably need someone to "hold my hand" while I make my first steps in this
field.

What's more, I don't even understand what v4l is, let alone tell the
difference between v4l and v4l2. Which drivers conform to which API, etc. I
*really* am lost in here, so I will need as much help as I can get.
