New development repository

Hi,

For those who are interested, note that I just started some development
in a new repository.
The goal of this new development is to improve the ability of the driver
to scale and/or crop the video to be displayed.
Ultimately, it will also allow to use the WSS part of ADV7170 encoders,
and hopefully supersede the patch currently distributed by Ville Skyttä.

This new repo is available at:
  http://freehg.org/u/nboullis/em8300-scale-n-crop/

All feedback is welcome.


Note that "normal" development is expected to continue on the main
branch, including tracking kernel API changes and making releases.

I will try to keep this new branch in sync with the main one, and will
merge it when I feel it's ready.


Anyone who wants to implement any feature is welcome to create his/her
own repository just as I did, and to advertize it here. "Release Early,
Release Often!" BTW, Christian, how are you doing with that
suspend/resume stuff?


Cheers,

Nicolas

Sounds great.

Note that I have not updated the WSS patch to 0.16.4+ and have no plans to do
that - I've not used WSS myself for a while due to
the "vibration/interlacedness" problem (which was also briefly discussed here
some time ago IIRC) introduced by the patch, and porting the patch to 0.16.4
was more than a few minutes' job.

Just to clarify, what is the main branch nowadays?  CVS HEAD, the
em8300-nboullis hg repo or something else?

That does not remind me anything. Do you have any pointer for me to read
about that issue?

This is the em8300-nboullis hg repo... until someone else takes over the
development of the diver...
