So, Jean-Francois is also trying to do things with the TDA998x - what's
the story with that, is this joined up at all?


Not really. This basic functionality does not touch tda998x at all on the fly, but just sets i2s configuation in the beginning and bangs the bits trough McASP. But as long as the old platform data for tda998x still works after Jean-Francois' patches I should be safe.

The problem with the Jean-Francois' patches is the DT support. The BBB HDMI video is implemented trough tilcdc-slave mechanism without a DT node for the tda encoder, which renders Jean-Francois' approach unusable for BBB.

The whole tilcdc slave approach may not be the most elegant way to use the tda driver, but it does not look like it is going to change any time soon.

Best regards,
Jyri

ps. I have been thinking on something similar to Jean-Francois' patch for SiI9022 which I have been working on lately. Also I have been wondering if it would be possible to come up with a generic ASoC codec component driver or library that could be used with any HDMI encoder to produce the ASoC codec component. Unfortunately I am in too early stage to produce anything more concrete.
