SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 - -The cx88 driver -=============== - -Author: Gerd Hoffmann - -This is a v4l2 device driver for the cx2388x chip. - - -Current status --------------- - -video - - Works. - - Overlay isn't supported. - -audio - - Works. The TV standard detection is made by the driver, as the - hardware has bugs to auto-detect. - - audio data dma (i.e. recording without loopback cable to the - sound card) is supported via cx88-alsa. - -vbi - - Works. - - -How to add support for new cards --------------------------------- - -The driver needs some config info for the TV cards. This stuff is in -cx88-cards.c. If the driver doesn't work well you likely need a new -entry for your card in that file. Check the kernel log (using dmesg) -to see whenever the driver knows your card or not. There is a line -like this one: - -.. code-block:: none - - cx8800[0]: subsystem: 0070:3400, board: Hauppauge WinTV \ - 34xxx models [card=1,autodetected] - -If your card is listed as "board: UNKNOWN/GENERIC" it is unknown to -the driver. What to do then? - -1) Try upgrading to the latest snapshot, maybe it has been added - meanwhile. -2) You can try to create a new entry yourself, have a look at - cx88-cards.c. If that worked, mail me your changes as unified - diff ("diff -u"). -3) Or you can mail me the config information. We need at least the - following information to add the card: - - - the PCI Subsystem ID ("0070:3400" from the line above, - "lspci -v" output is fine too). - - the tuner type used by the card. You can try to find one by - trial-and-error using the tuner=<n> insmod option. If you - know which one the card has you can also have a look at the - list in CARDLIST.tuner |
