[linux-dvb] video4linux issues

[Manousaridis Angelos <amanous@inaccessnetworks.com>]

Hello,

I want to develop a driver for a custom video board for a strongARM 
platform. This board has a MPEG2 decoder and a graphics processor. The 
incoming data stream will come from the network interface. I have found 
no support for the two ICs invovled (LSI 64105, Teralogic 751) so I will 
start from scratch.

Most probably linux-dvb is not needed for this project, but I would like 
to ask the linux-dvb developers about video4linux.
I found the following pages related to it :

http://www.video4linux.net/
http://bytesex.org/v4l/
http://www.thedirks.org/v4l2/

and I am a little confused. What is the most up-to-date API?
What API is included in the linux kernel tree?

I want to develop a driver for kernel version 2.4.18, but I would like 
of course to use the interface that 2.5 and 2.6 will use (without major 
changes). I am not interested for kernels before 2.4.18.
