V4l2 Mini-summit proposal: special API for SDI

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I have been asked to propose a topic for the mini-summit regarding an
SDI (Serial Digital Interface) API of some sort. For those who are not
aware this is a professional interface used in broadcasting and CCTV.
The most serious issue is that many vendors provide Linux drivers with
V4L2 and ALSA - which is not acceptable for maintaining lipsync, let
alone maintaining the exact relationship between audio samples and
video that SDI provides.

Some other issues are mentioned here: https://wiki.videolan.org/SDI_API/
The wiki page has a very loose proposal for an API, though perhaps the
per-line idea is ambitious at this stage. Field or frame capture is
more realistic.

Regards,

Kieran Kunhya
