Hello,
A user (Michael Hartup in Cc) wants to use stk1160 on low power, low
cost devices (like raspberrypi).
At the moment raspberrypi can't stream using isoc urbs due to problems
with usb host driver (dwc-otg)
preventing it from achieving the required throughput.
For instance, on my rpi setup I can stream (using dd) at 16MB/s; but
at least 20 MB/s are required.
Having read that bulk transfers may work better with rpi usb driver, I
decided to try to implement
those at stk1160. However, I later discovered stk1160 doesn't have any
bulk endpoint (see lsusb below).
(I'm no expert, but I assume lack of bulk endpoint means I can't use
bulk urbs, right?).
We could use a lower alternate setting, but unless we know how to
reduce device frame rate
or frame size, this won't work. If there's anyone from syntek reading
this, we would appreciate
to have some information on this issue.
If anyone can think of something to solve this, or make a suggestion
on another low cost, low power board
to use, I'm sure Michael would appreciate it.
Thanks!
Ezequiel

Might see if I can get hold of one of these, is there a commercial device name?

Correct, you need to fix the rpi host controller driver in order to make
this work properly. Please push back on the developers of that hardware
so we can get the specs to write a proper driver for it.
Or better yet, buy a board with a working USB port, like a BeagleBone or
the like :)
Sorry, there's really nothing we can do here,

Typically, a media device either uses isoc or bulk transfer. When the device
has both, one transfer type is generally used by analog and the other one
for digital. So, it is not a driver's choice; it is up to the a hardware's
manufacturer to decide it.

I fully agree with Greg: if the rpi host controller is broken, there's nothing
we can do at media driver.
Either put pressure at the hardware manufacturer for the fix to happen,
or just return it back to it and use another hardware.

Michael Hartup (the interested user) *has* a beaglebone.
I'm trying to help him getting it ready for stk1160.
However, Michael is getting choppy video capture.
(dmesg doesn't show anything relevant)
@Michael, could you upload those captures somewhere
and post the links for everyone to see?
Is this related to beaglebone's known usb dma issues?

Unfortunately, I don't own a beaglebone (and I can't afford one right now)
so I can't really see for myself what's going on.
Any help, greatly appreciated.
Ezequiel

Thanks for looking at this gentlemen. I have posted some examples here;
