(also please don't top post) Re: 7136 Currently there haven't been many reports of devices using this IC. Last spring, Janneg obtained a device using the 7136 and this lead to a brief discussion on irc about it. IIRC, Manu Abrahams, who had access to the datasheet at the time and upon a cursory inspection of its info, thought that it was likely that support for the chip could be incorporated into the existing 713x driver. I forget any specifics about the chip, but I seem to recall that there is something unique about it. (I also seem to recall that it has component input that is good enough for capturing full res HDTV...not that many vendors would ever implement access to that though). Anyway, I haven't seen much mention of the chip since, but did happen to coincidently catch this post just the other day: * http://marc.info/?l=linux-video&m=122675953217105&w=2 The importance of which becomes clear when seeing: * http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_HD_Ultimate_Stick_(808e) So I have cc'ed Devin in on the message as perhaps you two could collaborate on this, and I imagine Devin would appreciate any help once all the "fun" legal aspect is settled with NXP. -- video4linux-list mailing list Unsubscribe mailto:video4linux-list-request@redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
