Assuming that you plan to use V4L2 as the API instead of DRM/KMS, then the best
reference driver is drivers/media/pci/cobalt.

The PCIe cobalt card has four HDMI input and (via a daughterboard) an optional
fifth input or an HDMI output.

You can ignore all the code for the input part and just look at the code for the
HDMI output (it uses the adv7511 as the i2c HDMI transmitter).

The driver supports audio too.

I assume the primary use is to stream video (V4L2) and not as a desktop/GUI output
(DRM/KMS)? If you want to use it for the latter, then this is the wrong mailinglist.

Regards,
