Hi There Magewell are a manufacturer of video-capture devices. They have both USB and PCIe devices. The USB devices use the upstream uvcvideo driver and Magewell currently provide proprietary drivers for their PCIe products. http://www.magewell.com/ I've approached Magewell about having upstream Linux drivers for these PCIe devices and they are open to sharing hardware documentation and the sources to their proprietary drivers under an NDA for the purpose of developing an upstream Linux driver. This is where I'm hoping that the linux driver project can help out. My interest in this is that I want to be using Magewell PCIe capture cards in my company's products ( https://stb-tester.com/ ), but I don't want to be stuck with proprietary drivers. I'm hoping I can facilitate because I have some limited kernel developer experience, but I wouldn't be confident enough to write an entire v4l driver myself. I'd originally posted this to the linux driver project mailing list[1]. Greg KH suggested I repost here as there aren't many v4l developers on that list. [1]: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.driver-project.devel/88218 Please let me know what additional information I can provide to get this process started.
