Some notes regarding the cx18 driver for the Conexant CX23418 MPEG
|
|
encoder chip:
|
|
|
|
1) Currently supported are:
|
|
|
|
- Hauppauge HVR-1600
|
|
- Compro VideoMate H900
|
|
- Yuan MPC718
|
|
- Conexant Raptor PAL/SECAM devkit
|
|
|
|
2) Some people have problems getting the i2c bus to work.
|
|
The symptom is that the eeprom cannot be read and the card is
|
|
unusable. This is probably fixed, but if you have problems
|
|
then post to the video4linux or ivtv-users mailinglist.
|
|
|
|
3) VBI (raw or sliced) has not yet been implemented.
|
|
|
|
4) MPEG indexing is not yet implemented.
|
|
|
|
5) The driver is still a bit rough around the edges, this should
|
|
improve over time.
