Re: AverMedia HD Duet (White Box) A188WB drivers

2016-03-04 Thread Manu Abraham 
Hi Olli,

Most of the work which went into the saa716x (saa7160xx and sa7162x)
I had pushed out to
http://git.linuxtv.org//manu/saa716x_new.git/
so that people were able to use it while it was being developed.
There were some issues over here (things went through a data recovery
process), which got sorted out. There are other changes that also needed
to be pushed out. It is just a matter of time, to get those changes out.

Regards,
Manu

Hi Manu,

How's it going with the SAA7160? I'd be really happy to see the driver
being mainlined, but do not really understand if there is some major
showstoppers still that keep this from happening.

Luis has his personal media_tree here
https://github.com/ljalves/linux_media/wiki that contains Manu's
SAA7160 driver and as far as I understand many people are using that
tree with good success. If that could integrated into the tree, I'm
sure the community can help to iron out any possible issues existing
there still.

Cheers,
-olli

Have you had a chance to make any more progress on this?

As you're probably aware there are quite a few drivers waiting for 
saa716x to be integrated into the tree; if you need some help here is 
the work remaining to be done something that can be picked up by other 
people?

Hi David,

The saa7160 chipset is supported by the saa716x driver.
I wrote a driver for it, which is over here.
http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/manu/saa716x_new.git

I do have the A188 card and documentation also with me,
thanks to Avermedia.

The card is not yet supported in the above tree, so cloning
that tree will not help much in your case. Though I have
some code related to that, it is only on my local testbox

I've been with an accident and my other hand is in a restrictive
state with minimal movements. It will be a few weeks, before
I can do something in this area. It's not much help to you at
this point right now, but just fyi

Manu
