Hauppauge 2250 (saa7164 chip)

Hauppauge 2250 (saa7164 chip)

[Jim Goddard]

I haven't seen anything in about a month, and I am curious as to whether anyone is or even can be working on a driver for this card?

I would be very interested in even alpha drivers that I could work on/test.  It is my understanding that Steven Toth was working on this, but he seems to be focusing on the excellent HDPVR1212 Mac OS X project right now.

Thanks a lot, and keep up the good work.

Jim

Regarding development for NXP saa7160/1/2 and saa7164 ICs

[CityK]

Evidently someone from NXP has left a message in the wiki (Ignore the
incorrect date, as the message was entered today; see history for
confirmation): http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Talk:NXP_SAA716x

I will invite them to join into this thread.

If "octavsly" is able to assist, I believe the relevant background on
the matters are essentially:

A) SAA7160/1/2
- The current rendition of the driver that Manu has been developing 
resides here: http://jusst.de/hg/saa716x
- IIRC, Manu found that some particulars of the chip(s) were not clearly
documented within the datasheets he had been provided, so development is
still largely a WIP

B) SAA7164
- my understanding is that there was a fair amount of work towards a
driver put in by Steve, but he has had to put this project on hold
- a number of other people have expressed interest in pushing forth with
this, but I would imagine that Steve may be prevented by NDA from aiding
them in their interest
