Regarding Rocky 8.5, can you say how you got it working, maybe you built the official driver from somewhere, but even if you did, how did you install it on 8.5? It’s important because the way it works on 8.5 is similar to how it works on 9.5
Compiled it on Rocky 8.5. Indeed, I’ve found that compiling on 9.5 is similar.
Regarding why do TBS people try to obliterate the whole of the linux media drivers tree and all the firmware, and then blat their’s over the top, who knows?
I had hoped you might be able to shed some light on that.
Regarding the linuxtv site, you are right, it does have some drivers, but I don’t think it has drivers for TBS?
Exactly as described in my original post
Regaring making an RPM I’d say that’s a long way off, I mean you don’t have a way of installing it manually on 9.5, let alone being able to make an RPM?
I appreciate that I could just compile it on 9.5. Indeed I have that working just fine on a test 9.5 system. As described above, I’d like to do things in a more RH compatible way and build up my own RPM.
If you know where the source RPM is for libv4l-1.20.0-5.el9.x86_64.rpm that will probably get me on my way again.
Thanks
