This is a new chapter of tw5864 video grabber & encoder driver development drama. Last state of code is here (tw5864 branch, drivers/staging/media/tw5864): https://github.com/bluecherrydvr/linux/tree/tw5864/drivers/staging/media/tw5864 Currently I use a third-side LGPL library for H.264 headers generation - SPS, PPS and slice headers (because device doesn't generate them). It is included as a git submodule "h264bitstream". It is used from tw5864-h264.c . Of course we want our driver to get to upstream repository when it matures enough, that's why we want to ask for advice regarding this. I see that there is no similar case in upstream kernel repo - no submodules and no libraries for H264 bitstreams. Device datasheet (http://lizard.bluecherry.net/~autkin/tw5864/tw5864b1-ds.pdf , page 47) shows that there's almost no variety of modes, so minimally an implementation of bitstream writing functions ue() and se() will suffice. I guess that one acceptable way is to pre-generate all headers for all needed cases and ship them inlined; for correctness checking purpose, it is possible to ship also a script or additional source code file which is able to generate same headers. Please advise. Thanks in advance for any kind reply. -- Bluecherry developer. -- 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
