- The saa7134 driver
- ==================
- Author Gerd Hoffmann
- This is a v4l2/oss device driver for saa7130/33/34/35 based capture / TV
- boards.
- Status
- ------
- Almost everything is working. video, sound, tuner, radio, mpeg ts, ...
- As with bttv, card-specific tweaks are needed. Check CARDLIST for a
- list of known TV cards and saa7134-cards.c for the drivers card
- configuration info.
- Build
- -----
- Once you pick up a Kernel source, you should configure, build,
- install and boot the new kernel. You'll need at least
- these config options::
- ./scripts/config -e PCI
- ./scripts/config -e INPUT
- ./scripts/config -m I2C
- ./scripts/config -m MEDIA_SUPPORT
- ./scripts/config -e MEDIA_PCI_SUPPORT
- ./scripts/config -e MEDIA_ANALOG_TV_SUPPORT
- ./scripts/config -e MEDIA_DIGITAL_TV_SUPPORT
- ./scripts/config -e MEDIA_RADIO_SUPPORT
- ./scripts/config -e RC_CORE
- ./scripts/config -e MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT
- ./scripts/config -m VIDEO_SAA7134
- ./scripts/config -e SAA7134_ALSA
- ./scripts/config -e VIDEO_SAA7134_RC
- ./scripts/config -e VIDEO_SAA7134_DVB
- ./scripts/config -e VIDEO_SAA7134_GO7007
- To build and install, you should run::
- make && make modules_install && make install
- Once the new Kernel is booted, saa7134 driver should be loaded automatically.
- Depending on the card you might have to pass ``card=<nr>`` as insmod option.
- If so, please check Documentation/admin-guide/media/saa7134-cardlist.rst
- for valid choices.
- Once you have your card type number, you can pass a modules configuration
- via a file (usually, it is either ``/etc/modules.conf`` or some file at
- ``/etc/modules-load.d/``, but the actual place depends on your
- distribution), with this content::
- options saa7134 card=13 # Assuming that your card type is #13
- Changes / Fixes
- ---------------
- Please mail to linux-media AT vger.kernel.org unified diffs against
- the linux media git tree:
- https://git.linuxtv.org/media.git/
- This is done by committing a patch at a clone of the git tree and
- submitting the patch using ``git send-email``. Don't forget to
- describe at the lots what it changes / which problem it fixes / whatever
- it is good for ...
- Known Problems
- --------------
- * The tuner for the flyvideos isn't detected automatically and the
- default might not work for you depending on which version you have.
- There is a ``tuner=`` insmod option to override the driver's default.
