I had a look at such patched version of btaudio, and it seems that the
osprey 230 card is handled in a different way respect to the osprey200
(which seems to be the one supported by snd-bt87x). In particular, the
patched btaudio driver has some calls to bttv_I2CWrite(), gpio_andor(),
and some other gpio_*. Such calls seem to be used to set the volume on
the osprey230. Maybe this explains why the snd-bt87x driver is not
working properly here.
I also contacted the technical support at ViewCast (the producer of
osprey230), and I've been told that "the drivers are in the midst of a
major rewrite. So, ALSA support should be available in the V4L2 drivers.
Again, I expect, but cannot guarantee, this support in the 2.6.18
kernel". Can anyone confirm that someone is working on ALSA support for
osprey230 cards? (I see that it will not be in 2.6.18, but this is not a
problem... I just want to know if there really is some ongoing work).
Thanks,
Luca
