Thanks for the pointer. I used USBPcap and exported text out of wireshark. Here's the capture of connecting the device: https://www.libertas-tech.com/dazzle_usb_connect.txt Here's a capture of the device recording a 1 minute video. This one is almost 700 meg so you probably don't want to try and open it in a browser: https://www.libertas-tech.com/dazzle_recording_video.txt I can arrange to get one of these devices in the hands of a developer if that would help too. > > >Here's the lsusb output: > ... > > > Interface Descriptor: > > bLength 9 > > bDescriptorType 4 > > bInterfaceNumber 0 > > bAlternateSetting 7 > > bNumEndpoints 4 > > bInterfaceClass 255 Vendor Specific Class > > bInterfaceSubClass 0 > > bInterfaceProtocol 255 > > iInterface 0 > > Endpoint Descriptor: > > bLength 7 > > bDescriptorType 5 > > bEndpointAddress 0x81 EP 1 IN > > bmAttributes 3 > > Transfer Type Interrupt > > Synch Type None > > Usage Type Data > > wMaxPacketSize 0x0001 1x 1 bytes > > bInterval 11 > > Endpoint Descriptor: > > bLength 7 > > bDescriptorType 5 > > bEndpointAddress 0x82 EP 2 IN > > bmAttributes 1 > > Transfer Type Isochronous > > Synch Type None > > Usage Type Data > > wMaxPacketSize 0x1400 3x 1024 bytes > > bInterval 1 > > Endpoint Descriptor: > > bLength 7 > > bDescriptorType 5 > > bEndpointAddress 0x84 EP 4 IN > > bmAttributes 1 > > Transfer Type Isochronous > > Synch Type None > > Usage Type Data > > wMaxPacketSize 0x03ac 1x 940 bytes > > bInterval 1 > > Endpoint Descriptor: > > bLength 7 > > bDescriptorType 5 > > bEndpointAddress 0x8a EP 10 IN > > bmAttributes 2 > > Transfer Type Bulk > > Synch Type None > > Usage Type Data > > wMaxPacketSize 0x0200 1x 512 bytes > > bInterval 0 > This endpoint configuration is different from the Empia devices > we've seen so far. > We have never seen any devices using endpoint address 0x8a and > endpoint 0x84 looks strange. > It's hard to say what they are used for. > The current em28xx driver will assume 0x84 is used for DVB, but that > makes no sense for this device. > > Regards, > Frank > -- > 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 -- 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
