1 2 3 What is it? 4 =========== 5 6 This is a v4l2/oss device driver for saa7130/33/34/35 based capture / TV 7 boards. See http://www.semiconductors.philips.com/pip/saa7134hl for a 8 description. 9 10 11 Status 12 ====== 13 14 Almost everything is working. video, sound, tuner, radio, mpeg ts, ... 15 16 As with bttv, card-specific tweaks are needed. Check CARDLIST for a 17 list of known TV cards and saa7134-cards.c for the drivers card 18 configuration info. 19 20 21 Build 22 ===== 23 24 Pick up videodev + v4l2 patches from http://bytesex.org/patches/. 25 Configure, build, install + boot the new kernel. You'll need at least 26 these config options: 27 28 CONFIG_I2C=m 29 CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=m 30 31 Type "make" to build the driver now. "make install" installs the 32 driver. "modprobe saa7134" should load it. Depending on the card you 33 might have to pass card=<nr> as insmod option, check CARDLIST for 34 valid choices. 35 36 37 Changes / Fixes 38 =============== 39 40 Please mail me unified diffs ("diff -u") with your changes, and don't 41 forget to tell me what it changes / which problem it fixes / whatever 42 it is good for ... 43 44 45 Known Problems 46 ============== 47 48 * The tuner for the flyvideos isn't detected automatically and the 49 default might not work for you depending on which version you have. 50 There is a tuner= insmod option to override the driver's default. 51 52 Card Variations: 53 ================ 54 55 Cards can use either of these two crystals (xtal): 56 - 32.11 MHz -> .audio_clock=0x187de7 57 - 24.576MHz -> .audio_clock=0x200000 58 (xtal * .audio_clock = 51539600) 59 60 Some details about 30/34/35: 61 62 - saa7130 - low-price chip, doesn't have mute, that is why all those 63 cards should have .mute field defined in their tuner structure. 64 65 - saa7134 - usual chip 66 67 - saa7133/35 - saa7135 is probably a marketing decision, since all those 68 chips identifies itself as 33 on pci. 69 70 Credits 71 ======= 72 73 andrew.stevens@philips.com + werner.leeb@philips.com for providing 74 saa7134 hardware specs and sample board. 75 76 77 Have fun, 78 79 Gerd 80 81 -- 82 Gerd Knorr <kraxel@bytesex.org> [SuSE Labs]
