No applications exist that use the vtx support. - Of the two i2c drivers that actually support this API the saa5249 - has been impossible to use for a year now and no known hardware - that supports this device exists. The saa5246a is theoretically - supported by the old mxb boards, but it never actually worked. - - In summary: there is no hardware that can use this API and there - are no applications actually implementing this API. - - The vtx support still reserves minors 192-223 and we would really - like to reuse those for upcoming new functionality. In the unlikely - event that new hardware appears that wants to use the functionality - provided by the vtx API, then that functionality should be build - around the sliced VBI API instead. -Who: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> - ---------------------------- What: IRQF_DISABLED |
