Making it Work
Expecting Conexant CX2310x to work, but this is still under investigation.
Firmware
The unit does not use an loadable firmware.
Drivers
See Conexant CX2310x.
Test System
The device is connected to a multicore AMD A6-3500 system.
> uname -a Linux media-center 3.5.0-27-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 25 19:58:17 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Kernel Output
The Kernel loads the newly provided drivers
> dmesg
[11196.213937] usb 1-4: new high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci_hcd [11196.349182] usb 1-4: New USB device found, idVendor=1d19, idProduct=6109 [11196.349195] usb 1-4: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [11196.349202] usb 1-4: Product: Video Grabber [11196.349208] usb 1-4: Manufacturer: DK [11196.349213] usb 1-4: SerialNumber: 0000000000
Kernel Modules
To get the difference the lsmod was logged before and after plugging in the device, then the "diff" command creates the output.
Remains to be filled in. Currently no difference found.
Remote Control Support
There is no remote control.
Snapshot Control Support
The housing is equipped with an push bottom to initiate a video snapshot. Operating of this shows no effect in VLC application nor /var/log/messages.
