Hi Dominik
That's not answer for you (sorry).
Thanks anyway for feeling my pain ;-)
I think - rather to Gerd and bytesex team.
Hello.
I just suggested that a few weeks ago - more information.
The new saa drivers have new futures, which are (I belive) fully usefull,
but to set them, neccesairly is background knowledge about tv cards work
rules and more details about specified (v4l2 faq gives some answers).
For example - ts device - frankly, I do not now exactly what it does
(shame - sure something simple).
The most interesting would be insmod options list for saa7134 with some
more
description of them. "modinfo" gives only list, but description is
unsufficient. I miss for some example parameters (tuner types
configuration - first).
I think most of the stuff is documented in the tuner.h and
saa7134.h-cards.h ... at least I got an idea what the stuff means when I
looked at it. (to find out what option one needs for their card is a
totally different story).
Obviously for a non programmer this is a no go ...
I am very happy that Gerd spends a significant amount of time for
writing this drivers, maybe all of us users of the saa7134 should work
together to deliver some documentation that Gerd might be willing to put
up on bytesex.org or include with the driver.
I have been using linux for quite a while, but solely as a server
system. So I have no idea about video4linux and other multi media stuff
(I mean, I still don't know how one really should configure sound ...
OSS/alsa/esound you name it! everybody seems to use something different.)
