IC-COMP driver and CCIR cameras



Dear folks,
 
I have an IC-COMP (well, PC-COMP actually) board intended to grab images from a B&W CCIR camera. I have gone through the driver mailing list and found another very related discussion: that of Fabien Spindler and Matthias regarding how to make the IC-COMP module work for a CCIR camera. The issue was that the call "GIOC_GE_SET_CAMCNF" can't be performed since the "read_config()" function does not provide support for the IC-COMP patch. As a result, the camera configuration is set with fixed parameters (those of a NTSC camera according to Fabien's statements) in the patched "icpciAM.c" and can't be customized by means of a ".cam" file.
 
Matthias suggested that Fabien should modify the "cmp_def_cam" struct settings in "icpciAM.c" by hand as the only way to overcome this problem. And I am exactly at that point. The issue is that such settings are (it's my guess) board-register-level ones so they are unintelligible for a common developer unless you know how the board works at the register level (information that the manufacturer does not give out for obvious reasons).
 
In short, I have no idea about how to customize such settings for a CCIR camera like mine. Does Matthias, Fabien or anybody else?
 
Thanks so much to everyone,
Pedro
