I really think so, please see: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/connector/analog-tv-connector.txt And as an example of a board device tree using connectors to model analog input see how the cvbs input on Salvator-X is described: cvbs-in { compatible = "composite-video-connector"; label = "CVBS IN"; port { cvbs_con: endpoint { remote-endpoint = <&adv7482_ain7>; }; }; }; I think you should provide 4 input ports, where to connect input from the analog connectors, and derive the number of enabled inputs from the number of endpoints connected to an active remote. Also, you might want to provide 2 output ports, one CSI-2 and one BT565 and parse the right one depending on the compatible string. I would also place the input ports last (from port@2 to port@5) so that we make easier to support similar chips with more inputs (if any). That said, I'm no expert of analog video, so others might have different opinions :) Thanks j > > -- > Best regards, > Marek Vasut
