 |
|
Hi,
I recently found that the saa7134 driver doesn't support the PAL60 mode, which is used by some gamecube games (in Europe, anyway). I don't know if anything else uses it.
I looked through the source code and made this little patch:
| Code: |
173,181d172
< #define NORM_625_60 \
< .h_start = 0, \
< .h_stop = 719, \
< .video_v_start = 22, \
< .video_v_stop = 22+239, \
< .vbi_v_start = 10, \
< .vbi_v_stop = 21, \
< .src_timing = 1
<
279,289d269
< },{
< .name = "PAL-60",
< .id = V4L2_STD_PAL_60,
< NORM_625_60,
<
< .sync_control = 0x18,
< .luma_control = 0x40,
< .chroma_ctrl1 = 0x81,
< .chroma_gain = 0x2a,
< .chroma_ctrl2 = 0x06,
< .vgate_misc = 0x1c,
|
This should be applied to the saa7134-video.c file, in /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/video/saa7134/. I've only tried it in a 2.6.10 kernel, if you have another version this should at least get you started.
Then you need to cd to /usr/src/linux and
| Code: |
make modules && make modules_install
|
then:
| Code: |
rmmod saa7134 && modprobe saa7134
|
Now you should be able to play metroid prime 2 and resident evil 4 (if you imported it!).
Good luck! |

| Since kernel 2.6.12, my patch appears to have been included in the main kernel tree so patching is no longer necessary. |
