I have been struggling with Linux drivers for the above mentioned card.
Doing an lspci -v reports:
03:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23885 PCI
Video and Audio Decoder (rev 02)
Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. Device 71d3
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
Memory at ef800000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M]
Capabilities: [40] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
Capabilities: [80] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [90] Vital Product Data
Capabilities: [a0] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting
Capabilities: [200] Virtual Channel <?>
Kernel driver in use: cx23885
Kernel modules: cx23885
I have been googling a lot and I am somewhat confused if the current drivers
supports video capture on the S-Video connector. Most mailing list entries
say that only digital capture is possible, however I did notice some
changes in the cx23885-cards.c:
[CX23885_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1200] = {
.name = "Hauppauge WinTV-HVR1200",
.portc = CX23885_MPEG_DVB,
.input = {{
.type = CX23885_VMUX_TELEVISION,
.vmux = 0,
.gpio0 = 0xff00,
}, {
.type = CX23885_VMUX_DEBUG,
.vmux = 0,
.gpio0 = 0xff01,
}, {
.type = CX23885_VMUX_COMPOSITE1,
.vmux = 1,
.gpio0 = 0xff02,
}, {
.type = CX23885_VMUX_SVIDEO,
.vmux = 2,
.gpio0 = 0xff02,
} },
},
Which sort of indicates that the driver is aware of the connector. Can
anybody help me what is the current status of this driver/card combination?
So - in short - I am currently only interested in capturing analog video from the s-video connector (it comes from a satbox). Is that in any way possible with this card?
