Subject: Color problem with MPX-885 card (cx23885)
Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2012 15:10:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <k7tkcu$m6j$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)

Hello

First of all, I don't know, if this is the right mailing list. I haven't
found any other. The video4linux list seems to be abandoned.

I am testing a Commell MPX-885 mini-pcie card, which is based on a
cx23885 chip. There is "initial" support in the linux kernel for this card:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=commit;h=2cb9ccd4612907c0a30de9be1c694672e0cd8933

My system is based on Ubuntu 12.04LTS amd64 with kernel 3.2.0.32.

The driver in general works. There are a couple of problems, however,
which to my mind are probably easy to fix for someone understanding the
driver:

1.) MINOR PROBLEM: The card is not auto-recognized. The module needs to be
loaded with the option "card=32" to get it recognized.
2.) MINOR PROBLEM: With PAL camera, there is a black left border of
about 20-30 pixel. No border on the right side.
3.) MAJOR PROBLEM: The image is mainly black & white only with some
green and red information. There are vertical light green and red stripes

I have attached a captured image demonstrating the color problem (and
also the border) to a bug report here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50411

I would really like to get this card fully working. Is there anybody
here who can help me or direct me to a place where someone can help me.

Thanks a lot

Michael
