This is a wiki for info on the new "cx88" video capture driver for FreeBSD.

== Overview ==
[[http://www.freshports.org/multimedia/cx88|cx88]] is a package that provides kernel drivers and a simple capture application for video/audio capture cards based on the Conexant CX2388x family of PCI bridge chips.

== What the heck is a CX2388x? ==

The Conexant CX2388x is a series of what I informally call "multimedia bridge" chips. A multimedia bridge chip is responsible for providing an interface between a host data bus (e.g. PCI, PCI-express, USB, etc.) and a "frontend" for receiving audio or video signals. Frontends typically consist of a series of highly specialized pieces of silicon, such as RF tuner chips or digital TV demodulator chips. The bridge chip must provide a bus (typically I2C) for controlling frontend devices and expose functions for controlling the transfer of audio/video data across the host bus. Depending on the application, the bridge chip may also expose specialized functions for controlling the reception and decoding of the A/V signals.

== Supported Chips ==

The CX2388x family contains several iterations. The cx88 kernel drivers currently generically support any capture card based on the [[http://www.conexant.com/products/entry.jsp?id=107|CX23880/1/2/3]] flavors.
Support for the newer [[http://www.conexant.com/products/entry.jsp?id=393|CX23885]] PCI-express chip is currently under investigation.
