Subject: EM28xx - new device ID - Ion "Video Forever" USB capture dongle
Date: Sun, 26 May 2013 10:23:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51A1D475.5000106@philpem.me.uk> (raw)
Hi folks,
This is my first post here (I think?) and I'm going to make it an
informative one :)
TL/DR:
Can someone please add this to the device ID list for the em28xx module?
Ion "Video Forever" - USB ID EB1A:5124, Card Type 9.
Confirmed as working with Xawtv and VLC, video source PAL composite
from a FLIR camera; S-video and audio untested as I have no suitable
source to hand.
Test platform: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring", kernel 3.8.0-21-generic
#32-Ubuntu SMP x86_64
The longer version:
I found this thing in a local Maplins under stock code A27KJ for the
princely sum of £29.99 on special offer. According to the box, it's a
"Video Forever VHS-to-Digital Video Converter" by ION (www.ionaudio.com).
Strangely they don't list it on their website, so perhaps it's a special
for Maplin?
lsusb says:
Bus 001 Device 084: ID eb1a:5124 eMPIA Technology, Inc.
The CD-ROM in the packet is apparently a driver set for an "ezcap"
device ("Ezcap Video Grabber"), the INF file suggests it's an EM2860
series chip. For a laugh, I did this:
sudo modprobe em28xx card=9
echo eb1a 5124 | sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/drivers/em28xx/new_id
Which has the effect of loading the EM28xx driver with cardtype forced
to 9 (which seems to be a generic EM2860-based device ID), then adding
the new device ID (temporarily) to the module.

Fire up Xawtv or VLC, select the device, enjoy.
