tlg2300 release notes
====================

This is a v4l2/dvb device driver for the tlg2300 chip.


current status
==============

video
	- support mmap and read().(no overlay)

audio
	- The driver will register a ALSA card for the audio input.

vbi
	- Works for almost TV norms.

dvb-t
	- works for DVB-T

FM
	- Works for radio.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TESTED APPLICATIONS:

-VLC1.0.4 test the video and dvb. The GUI is friendly to use.

-Mplayer test the video.

-Mplayer test the FM. The mplayer should be compiled with --enable-radio and
	 --enable-radio-capture.
	The command runs as this(The alsa audio registers to card 1):
	#mplayer radio://103.7/capture/ -radio adevice=hw=1,0:arate=48000 \
		-rawaudio rate=48000:channels=2

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
KNOWN PROBLEMS:

country code
	- The firmware of the chip needs the country code to determine
	the stardards of video and audio when it runs for analog TV or radio.
	The DVB-T does not need the country code.

	So you must set the country-code correctly. The V4L2 does not have
	the interface,the driver has to provide a parameter `country_code'.

	You could set the coutry code in two ways, take USA as example
	(The USA's country code is 1):

	[1] add the following line in /etc/modprobe.conf before you insert the
	    card into USB hub's port :
		poseidon country_code=1

	[2] You can also modify the parameter at runtime (before you run the
	    application such as VLC)
		#echo 1 > /sys/module/poseidon/parameter/country_code
