Hi everyone,
I'm writing a driver for stk1160 usb bridge (audio & video capture device). The video part is almost done [1] and now I've started the alsa part.
As the driver replaces an in-tree staging driver I could just grab the alsa part from the original driver (called easycap), or look into em28xx sources.
[snipped myself]
I also would like to know (if anyone is reading this):
1. Why do I need to write another module for my device? Is it not possible to make it work with snd-usb-audio? 2. The device uses ac97 chip, could I use some ac97 common code instead of rewriting it myself?
Currently, v4l drivers that must support alsa rewrites a lot of stuff. I'm not sure this is the *right thing*.
Thanks, Ezequiel.
