.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm bktr
|
|
driver provides support for PCI
|
|
.Em video
|
|
capture on low cost, high performance boards. The driver is heavily based on
|
|
the Matrox Meteor driver. The bktr driver should support most video cards
|
|
based on the
|
|
.Em Brooktree Bt848 Video Capture Chip.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Specifically, the following cards are known to work:
|
|
.br
|
|
.Em Hauppage Wincast TV
|
|
.br
|
|
.Em STB TV PCI Television Tuner
|
|
.br
|
|
.Em Miro PC TV
|
|
.br
|
|
.Em Intel Smart Video Recorder III
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The driver currently supports the following features:
|
|
.br
|
|
.in +0.5i
|
|
PCI to PCI dma transfer

|
|
On these cards, tuners and other components are interconnected with an I2C bus.
|
|
The Brooktree848 chips act as a master device on the bus to control them.
|
|
Therefore,

.Xr iicbus 4 ,
|
|
.Xr iicbb 4
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr smbus 4
|
|
controller declarations are mandatory to active bktr support.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following kernel parameters may be used to further configure the driver:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Em options "BROOKTREE_ALLOC_PAGES=xxx"
|
|
specifies the number of contiguous pages to allocate when successfully
|
|
probed. The default number of pages allocated by the kernel is 216.
|
|
This means that there are (216*4096) bytes available for use.
