I am using the YUV output (/dev/video48) with the ivtv cvidix driver (which is similar to the X driver). During replay I can use the wss tool from the ivtv-utils to send wss commands to /dev/video16 (decoder). This switches my TV from 4:3 to a zoom modus which is useful for 4:3 letterbox. In the same way it should be possible to switch to another wss mode (by changing the code)
wss.c is hardcoded to use a value of 8 or 11 for buf[0].data[0] 7 = 16:9 8 = 4:3 11 = zooms a 4:3 letterbox to fit the 16:9 screen _______________________________________________ ivtv-devel mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-devel
