Sorry about that.
With respect to this patch: http://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/7941/ I don't see any sense on it. Video standard selection is done by software, when a standards mask is passed via VIDIOC_S_STD ioctl. Drivers should not mess it with modprobe hacks.
Yes, but we already have "secam=" option, and also the first scan, that is being done on driver init, scans too much without that option, and sometimes, unfortunately, detects the PAL carrier for me. By limiting it to secam, I avoid the problem and shorten the scan time. But this patch is not very important, so do whatever you think necessary with it.
I'll comment later http://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/7940/. It seems to be going into the right direction, but I need to take a deeper code inspection and maybe do some tests here.
Thanks! Of course, in my view, the _only_ right direction is to export the mute control to the alsa mixer and then fix mplayer. But at least I'm glad I've managed to find the hack that satisfies your opinion and works around the problem at the same time. -- 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
