From 55ff4f4df681b35c3491f8e19f7487497e2a4891 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2007 12:07:01 -0200 Subject: Allow using tea5761 radio device on tuner-core From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab tea5761 is a driver wrote back on 2005, to support Philips tea5671 radio, meanting to be used on some devices that would be lauched with those chips. Recently, some people seems to be interested on having support for those chips at Linux Kernel. Let's enable compilation of this driver and ask they to test if this works fine.

Currently the only card featuring full decoding support is the +Hauppauge PVR-350. + +NOTE: this driver requires the latest encoder firmware (version 2.06.039, size +376836 bytes). Get the firmware from here: + +http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/ivtv/firmware/firmware.tar.gz + +NOTE: 'normal' TV applications do not work with this driver, you need +an application that can handle MPEG input such as mplayer, xine, MythTV, +etc. + +The primary goal of the IVTV project is to provide a "clean room" Linux +Open Source driver implementation for video capture cards based on the +iCompression iTVC15 or Conexant CX23415/CX23416 MPEG Codec. + +Features: + * Hardware mpeg2 capture of broadcast video (and sound) via the tuner or + S-Video/Composite and audio line-in. + * Hardware mpeg2 capture of FM radio where hardware support exists + * Supports NTSC, PAL, SECAM with stereo sound + * Supports SAP and bilingual transmissions. + * Supports raw VBI (closed captions and teletext). + * Supports sliced VBI (closed captions and teletext) and is able to insert + this into the captured MPEG stream. + * Supports raw YUV and PCM input. + +Additional features for the PVR-350 (CX23415 based): + * Provides hardware mpeg2 playback + * Provides comprehensive OSD (On Screen Display: ie. graphics overlaying the + video signal) + * Provides a framebuffer (allowing X applications to appear on the video + device) (this framebuffer is not yet part of the kernel. In the meantime it + is available from www.ivtvdriver.org). + * Supports raw YUV output. + +IMPORTANT: In case of problems first read this page: + http://www.ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Troubleshooting + +See also: + +Homepage + Wiki +http://www.ivtvdriver.org + +IRC +irc://irc.freenode.net/ivtv-dev + +---------------------------------------------------------- + +Devices +======= + +A maximum of 12 ivtv boards are allowed at the moment. + +Cards that don't have a video output capability (i.e. non PVR350 cards) +lack the vbi8, vbi16, video16 and video48 devices. They also do not +support the framebuffer device /dev/fbx for OSD. + +The radio0 device may or may not be present, depending on whether the +card has a radio tuner or not. + +Here is a list of the base v4l devices: +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 0 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/video0 +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 16 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/video16 +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 24 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/video24 +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 32 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/video32 +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 48 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/video48 +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 64 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/radio0 +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 224 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/vbi0 +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 228 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/vbi8 +crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 232 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/vbi16 + +Base devices +============ + +For every extra card you have the numbers increased by one. For example, +/dev/video0 is listed as the 'base' encoding capture device so we have: + + /dev/video0 is the encoding capture device for the first card (card 0) + /dev/video1 is the encoding capture device for the second card (card 1) + /dev/video2 is the encoding capture device for the third card (card 2) + +Note that if the first card doesn't have a feature (eg no decoder, so no +video16, the second card will still use video17. The simple rule is 'add +the card number to the base device number'. If you have other capture +cards (e.g. WinTV PCI) that are detected first, then you have to tell +the ivtv module about it so that it will start counting at 1 (or 2, or +whatever). Otherwise the device numbers can get confusing. The ivtv +'ivtv_first_minor' module option can be used for that. + + +/dev/video0 +The encoding capture device(s). +Read-only. + +Reading from this device gets you the MPEG1/2 program stream. +Example: + +cat /dev/video0 > my.mpg (you need to hit ctrl-c to exit) + + +/dev/video16 +The decoder output device(s) +Write-only. Only present if the MPEG decoder (i.e. CX23415) exists. + +An mpeg2 stream sent to this device will appear on the selected video +display, audio will appear on the line-out/audio out. It is only +available for cards that support video out. Example: + +cat my.mpg >/dev/video16 + + +/dev/video24 +The raw audio capture device(s). +Read-only + +The raw audio PCM stereo stream from the currently selected +tuner or audio line-in. Reading from this device results in a raw +(signed 16 bit Little Endian, 48000 Hz, stereo pcm) capture. +This device only captures audio. This should be replaced by an ALSA +device in the future. +Note that there is no corresponding raw audio output device, this is +not supported in the decoder firmware. + + +/dev/video32 +The raw video capture device(s) +Read-only + +The raw YUV video output from the current video input. The YUV format +is non-standard (V4L2_PIX_FMT_HM12). + +Note that the YUV and PCM streams are not synchronized, so they are of +limited use. + + +/dev/video48 +The raw video display device(s) +Write-only. Only present if the MPEG decoder (i.e. CX23415) exists. + +Writes a YUV stream to the decoder of the card. + + +/dev/radio0 +The radio tuner device(s) +Cannot be read or written. + +Used to enable the radio tuner and tune to a frequency. You cannot +read or write audio streams with this device. Once you use this +device to tune the radio, use /dev/video24 to read the raw pcm stream +or /dev/video0 to get an mpeg2 stream with black video. + + +/dev/vbi0 +The 'vertical blank interval' (Teletext, CC, WSS etc) capture device(s) +Read-only + +Captures the raw (or sliced) video data sent during the Vertical Blank +Interval.
