So, if we want to go for putting this layer0/1/2 on TV through tv-out capability using v4l2, then we need to have this dispc capability code in common library (like how TI has done) and fb plus vl42 code should use it. I am sure Imre Deak will have better suggestions, as repeated attempt of adding these functionality through v4l2 from Khasim and Komal didn't reach any conclusions. -- --Trilok Soni - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
