Support for Empia 2980 video/audio capture chip set

2013-12-18 Thread Keith Lawson

Hello,

I'm trying to get a Dazzle Video Capture USB V1.0 video capture card 
working on a Linux device but it doesn't look like the chip set is 
supported yet. I believe this card is the next version of the Pinnacle  
VC100 capture card that worked with the em28xx kernel module. The 
hardware vendor that sold the card says that this device has an Empia 
2980 chip set in it so I'm inquiring about support for that chip set. 
I'm just wondering about the best approach for getting the new chip 
supported in the kernel. Is this something the em28xx maintainers would 
naturally address in time or can I assist in getting this into the 
kernel?


Here's dmesg from the Debian box I'm working on:

[ 3198.920619] usb 3-1: new high-speed USB device number 5 using
xhci_hcd
[ 3198.939394] usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1b80,
idProduct=e60a
[ 3198.939399] usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=1,
SerialNumber=2
[ 3198.939403] usb 3-1: Product: Dazzle Video Capture USB Audio Device
[ 3198.939405] usb 3-1: SerialNumber: 0

l440:~$ uname -a
Linux l440 3.10-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.10.11-1 (2013-09-10) x86_64
GNU/Linux

Try the linux-media developers, they would know this chipset and drivers
much better than we do.
