Hello list, I work for a very small startup developing arm based embedded systems. We are going to use the NXP SAA7154 Multistandard video decoder with comb filter, component input and RGB output chip. The chip provides some improvements of the SAA7119 chip which is (partially?) supported by the mainline Linux kernel. The major improvement of interest for us would be: * De-interlacing for progressive displays Unfortunately there is no Linux driver I know of. My questions: * Is there a straight forward way to make the Linux kernel support that chip? (new or extended existing) * What is the typical timeline for a "project" like this? * Would it make sense to try to implement it by myself or are there better easier ways to do this?
