To owners of Toshiba Qosmio laptops with CX23418 based video capture hardware:
Unfortunately, Toshiba has responded to my request for information to easily support these devices by politely declining for reasons that I understand (I think - language barrier). Although this may be disappointing to some, please remember that Toshiba is generally helpful to the Linux community: http://linux.toshiba-dme.co.jp/linux/index.htm even if they couldn't be in this case for various reasons. So, now if anyone wants support for these devices, I really do need to see detailed pictures of the hardware: CX23418, memory chips, tuner chips, and other supporting chips to have a chance of supporting this hardware properly. Also user experimentation and feedback will be needed to get audio and GPIO pin definitions right. There seem to be 4 variant of the hardware 3 with only analog support and 1 with analog and DVB-T. One of the 3 variants with analog only is for Japan, one is for worldwide, and I can't remember what the other one is for. An appropriate place to upload information and pictures of the Toshiba Qosmio video hardware would be the Wiki at linuxtv.org: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/List_of_Device_Vendors Currently there is no entry for Toshiba as a vendor, nor any hardware devices.
