Hello,
I sent the following message to the linux-usb mailing list and they
suggested I try here.
I'm trying to get a "Dazzle Video Capture USB V1.0" video capture card
working on a Linux device but it doesn't look like the chip set is
supported yet. I believe this card is the next version of the Pinnacle
VC100 capture card that worked with the em28xx kernel module. The
hardware vendor that sold the card says that this device has an Empia
2980 chip set in it so I'm inquiring about support for that chip set.
I'm just wondering about the best approach for getting the new chip
supported in the kernel. Is this something the em28xx maintainers
would naturally address in time or can I assist in getting this into
the kernel?
Here's dmesg from the Debian box I'm working on:
[ 3198.920619] usb 3-1: new high-speed USB device number 5 usingxhci_hcd
[ 3198.939394] usb 3-1: New USB device found,

Linux l440 3.10-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.10.11-1 (2013-09-10) x86_64

If this isn't the appropriate list to ask this question please point
me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Keith
The em28xx is indeed the dedicated driver for this device, but it's hard
to say how much work would be necessary to add support for it.
We currently don't support any em29xx chip yet, but in theory it is just
an extended em28xx device.
Whatever that means when it comes to the low level stuff... ;)
Regards,
Frank
