hey, i did a little more research about the mpeg1 issue. we have to make some changes to the driver to support mpeg1.
(1) at the moment the video decoder resolution is always the same as the resolution of the mpeg-encoder. for mpeg1 we need to (a) limit the vertical resolution to 240 ( 288 ) and (b) fix set the the vertical resolution of the video decoder to 480 ( 576 ) be set to 1 for mpeg 1. (2) the aspect ratio has to set to 1 for mpeg1. at the moment the resolution of both video decoder and mpeg encoder gets changed in the same place ( the v4l fmt ioctl ). to make it right we also need to consider the stream_type ( mpeg1 ( system stream ) or not ) and care about the transitions mpeg1<->mpeg2. i can do the programming, if a get a little hint where in the driver i should do it. i would choose ivtv_setup_v4l_encode_stream() but probably that is not a very good choice. thanks, ben ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
