Setting initial standard at the top of cx8800_initdev would cause the first call to cx88_set_tvnorm() to return without programming any registers (leaving the driver saying it's set to NTSC but the hardware isn't programmed). Even worse, any subsequent attempt to explicitly set it to NTSC-M will return success but actually fail to program the underlying registers unless first changing the standard to something other than NTSC-M. Set the initial standard later in the process, and make sure the field is zero at the beginning to ensure that the call always goes through. This regression was introduced in the following commit: commit ccd6f1d488e7 ("[media] cx88: move width, height and field to core struct") Author: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@xxxxxxxxx> [media] cx88: move width, height and field to core struct Signed-off-by: Devin Heitmueller <dheitmueller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/media/pci/cx88/cx88-cards.c | 9 ++++++++- drivers/media/pci/cx88/cx88-video.c | 2 +- 2 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- a/drivers/media/pci/cx88/cx88-cards.c +++ b/drivers/media/pci/cx88/cx88-cards.c @@ -3691,7 +3691,14 @@ struct cx88_core *cx88_core_create(struc core->nr = nr; sprintf(core->name, "cx88[%d]", core->nr); - core->tvnorm = V4L2_STD_NTSC_M; + /* + * Note: Setting initial standard here would cause first call to + * cx88_set_tvnorm() to return without programming any registers.
