V4L1 is the deprecated and now removed from kernel programming interface
to access video/image devices.
BUT the V4L1 interface can be supported via the libv4l version 0.8.3
onwards, as it that can do this conversion between the old API for the new
(V4L2) API.
I think that we should link cinelerra against libv4l1 if libv4l is
present, otherwise, do not compile V4L support.
Have you tried swaping linux/videodev.h by libv4l1-videodev.h?
; )
Best regards,
Rafael Diniz
By V4L do you mean the possibility to record from /dev/video_n ?
In my case that would be a disaster I am using it to scan film frames from
a 1394 camera.
Cheers

Hello,
today i updated my kernel to 2.6.39 and was able to compile cinelerra
after
applying Nicola's patch from bugs.cinelerra.org to j6t's repo.
In my opinion we should support recent kernels rather soon.
So i wonder whether we have to keep v4l1 and buzz supported or whether
removing support therefore (what Nicola's patch does) is fine, too.
Personally speaking i would vote for the second choice as we have
extremely
limited resources for maintenance.
However, if (and only if) this hardware should be still in use by
Cinelerra
users (please speak up if that's the case for you!) we should consider
adding an option to configure.
Regardless wheter we want to make support optional or remove it
completely,
i suggest to release a new version of cinelerra (2.1.6?) supporting linux
kernels =2.6.39 as soon as possible.
What is you opinion on that?
Regards,
Simeon
