Hello :)

Thnx for the reply !


Well, I do not have the cables ... it's a laptop card, orginally for a Dell,

I am doing my tests on an Acer,


The Video0 dev , composite/s-video is showing an analog signal, i guess a
"noise" picture because not hooked-up,

but bottom half is sometimes green .

Analog scanning/reception = NULL , I might have to check again the antenna
connexion,


For the Mpeg, negative, it's a 9013 chip, I still have to discecte the 9015
driver and pull-out

the 9013 spcific data , iguess .


What I need the most, Is a big picture of the V4L API , like an organigram of
what is where ( initialising this or that,

handeling setups - and controls)


I code, but going thru others Code, is always like playing Maze ... :)
especially an API in a whole System Package...


But I am searching on my side :)


I there a dummy /test driver for PCIe cards I can study ?


Best regards


Rémi.
