 Great news.
 
 A new version of the ISP driver will soon be published with all the legacy
 code removed. We need a few days to setup the repository properly. You can
 already get a preview at http://git.linuxtv.org/pinchartl/media.git
 (omap3isp-
 rx51 branch).
 
  On a previous generation of hardware with a completely different
 processor
  and sensor, we used the V4L2 overlay feature to stream directly to our
 LCD
  for preview. I am wondering what the plans are for overlay support in
 the
  omap ISP? How does the overlay feature fit into the new media bus
 feature?
 
 The OMAP3 ISP driver won't support V4L2 overlay directly. However, you can
 use
 the USERPTR streaming mode and pass framebuffer memory directly to the ISP
 driver, resulting in DMA to the framebuffer and improved efficiency.
 

Sorry for late reply,

Just wanted to add on top of this, you could use V4L2 Display driver here which 
supports 2 video planes (over /dev/video0  /dev/video1) along with both User 
pointer mode and MMAP mode of operation.

Thanks,
Vaibhav

OMAP ISP and Overlay

2010-08-24 Thread Lane Brooks

 Laurent,

So far I have the everything working with the OMAP ISP to where I can 
stream video on our custom board. On a previous generation of hardware 
with a completely different processor and sensor, we used the V4L2 
overlay feature to stream directly to our LCD for preview. I am 
wondering what the plans are for overlay support in the omap ISP? How 
does the overlay feature fit into the new media bus feature?


Thanks,
Lane
