It receives the IF from a PLL - and decodes the analog TV video signal. This is commonly - found on some very old analog tuners, like Philips MK3 - designs. They all contain a tda9887 (or some software - compatible similar chip, like tda9885).

This is commonly - found on some very old analog hardware, like Micronas - msp3400, Philips tda9840, tda985x, etc. Those devices - use a different I2C address than the tuner PLL and - should be controlled together with the IF-PLL video - decoder. - </entry> - </row> - <row> - <entry><constant>MEDIA_ENT_F_AUDIO_CAPTURE</constant></entry> - <entry>Audio Capture Function Entity.</entry> - </row> - <row> - <entry><constant>MEDIA_ENT_F_AUDIO_PLAYBACK</constant></entry> - <entry>Audio Playback Function Entity.</entry> - </row> - <row> - <entry><constant>MEDIA_ENT_F_AUDIO_MIXER</constant></entry> - <entry>Audio Mixer Function Entity.</entry> - </row> - <row> - <entry><constant>MEDIA_ENT_F_PROC_VIDEO_COMPOSER</constant></entry> - <entry>Video composer (blender).

An entity capable of video lookup table - processing must have one sink pad and one source pad.
