I doubt that those drivers would work with tvtime: this software were meant to test the Vector's deinterlacing algorithms, so it requires some specific video formats/resolutions found on TV and require 25 or 30 fps, as far as I remember. For example, It doesn't support QCIF/QVGA cameras. If you want to extend tvtime to use webcams, some work is needed. Probably the easiest way would be to use libv4l, that also does the V4L1 conversion, if needed. This may actually make sense even for a few TV cards like em28xx, where you could use a bayer format with a lower color depth and/or lower resolution, in order to allow viewing two simultaneous streams. So, I suggest you to just drop V4L1 from tvtime and convert it to use libv4l (the conversion is trivial: just replace open/close/ioctl from the V4L2 driver to the libv4l ones). This will allow you to drop the old V4L1 driver from it, and, if you decide later to accept other resolutions and make it more webcam friendly, you'll just need to allow tvtime to accept other video resolutions and disable the de-interlacing setup if a webcam is detected. -- Cheers, Mauro -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
