I just upgraded my mythtv system and lost the ability to see captions. The mythtv folks suggested that I check here in case it's a known issue.
Three years ago, Hans and I exchanged many emails as we got the cx25840 captioning working with the drivers of that era, but now, with the upgraded mythtv, I've had to move to the newer drivers and API. I've got KnoppMyth for my mythtv box, running a 2.6.23 kernel that's about 9 months old. Running the command: # v4l2-ctl --get-sliced-vbi-out-cap produces no output. It appears that the driver can capture sliced VBI, but cannot inject the resulting data into the MPEG stream on the /dev/video* device. Is that an accurate interpretation? If the insertion of captions into the MPEG stream is not available for my hardware yet, I'm happy to work on this again. -- Christopher Neufeld Home page: http://www.cneufeld.ca/neufeld "Don't edit reality for the sake of simplicity" _______________________________________________ ivtv-devel mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-devel
