.Ed
.Pp
On these cards, tuners and other components are interconnected with an I2C bus.
The Brooktree848 chips act as a master device on the bus to control them.
.Sh VIDEO CAPTURE INTERFACE
The video capture interface to
.Nm
is accessed through
.Pa /dev/bktrN
devices.
The following
.Xr ioctl 2
commands are supported on the Brooktree848 video capture interface:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Dv METEORSFMT Fa "unsigned long *"
This command sets the video format, also sometimes referred to as the
video norm.
The supported formats are:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -compact -width 28n
.It Dv METEOR_FMT_NTSC
NTSC
.It Dv METEOR_FMT_PAL
PAL
.It Dv METEOR_FMT_SECAM
SECAM
.It Dv METEOR_FMT_AUTOMODE
hardware default
.El
.It Dv METEORGFMT Fa "unsigned long *"
This command retrieves the current video format to the
.Vt unsigned long *
argument.
.It Dv METEORSETGEO Fa "struct meteor_geomet *"
This command sets the video properties that affect the bit size of
a frame throught the
.Vt meteor_geomet *
argument.
.Bd -literal
struct meteor_geomet {
	u_short		rows;	 /* height in pixels*/
	u_short		columns; /* width in pixels */
	u_short		frames;
	u_long		oformat;
}
.Ed
.Pp
The
.Va frames
field is the number of frames to buffer.
Currently only 1 frame is supported for most operations.
.Pp
The
.Va oformat
field is a bit-field describing the output pixel format
type and which video fields to capture.
The following are supported pixel format types:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -compact -width 28n
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_RGB16
16-bit RGB
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_RGB24
24-bit RGB in 32 bits
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_YUV_PACKED
16-bit 4:2:2 YUV
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_YUV_PLANAR
16-bit 4:2:2 YUV
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_YUV_UNSIGNED
unsigned UV
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_YUV_422
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_YUV_12
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_YUV_9
.El
.Pp
The following are supported field capture modes:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -compact -width 28n
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_ODD_ONLY
only odd fields
.It Dv METEOR_GEO_EVEN_ONLY
only even fields
.El
.Pp
By default, frames will consist of both the odd and even fields.
.It Dv METEORGSUPPIXFMT Fa "struct meteor_pixfmt *"
This command is used iteratively to fetch descriptions of supported
output pixel formats into the
.Vt meteor_pixfmt *
argument.
.Bd -literal
struct meteor_pixfmt {
	u_int          index;
	METEOR_PIXTYPE type;
	u_int          Bpp;		/* bytes per pixel */
	u_long         masks[3];	/* YUV bit masks */
	unsigned       swap_bytes :1;
	unsigned       swap_shorts:1;
};
.Ed
.Pp
To query all the supported formats, start with an index field of 0 and
continue with successive encodings (1, 2, ...) until the command returns
an error.
.It Dv METEORSACTPIXFMT Fa "int *"
This command sets the active pixel format.
The
.Vt int *
argument is the index of the pixel format as returned by
.Dv METEORGSUPPIXFMT .
.It Dv METEORGACTPIXFMT Fa "int *"
This command fetches the active pixel format index into the
.Vt int *
argument.
.It Dv METEORSINPUT Fa "unsigned long *"
This command sets the input port of the Brooktree848 device.
The following are supported input ports:

mystery device
.It Dv METEOR_INPUT_DEV_RGB
rgb meteor
.It Dv METEOR_INPUT_DEV_SVIDEO
S-Video
.El
.Pp
Not all devices built with Brooktree848 chips support the
full list of input ports.
.It Dv METEORGINPUT Fa "unsigned long *"
This command retrieves the current input port to the
.Vt unsigned long *
argument.
.It Dv METEORSFPS Fa "unsigned short *"
This command sets the number of frames to grab each second.
Valid frame rates are integers from 0 to 30.
.It Dv METEORGFPS Fa "unsigned short *"
This command fetches the number of frames to grab each second into the
.Vt unsigned short *
argument.
.It Dv METEORCAPTUR Fa "int *"
This command controls capturing of video data.
The following are valid arguments:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -compact -width 28n
.It Dv METEOR_CAP_SINGLE

.It Dv METEOR_CAP_CONTINOUS
continuously capture
.It Dv METEOR_CAP_STOP_CONT
stop continuous capture
.El
.It Dv METEORSSIGNAL Fa "unsigned int *"
This command controls the signal emission properties of
.Nm .
If the
.Vt unsigned int *
argument is a valid signal, then that signal will be emitted
when either a frame or field capture has completed.
To select between frame or field signalling, the following arguments
are used:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -compact -width 28n
.It Dv METEOR_SIG_FRAME
signal every frame
.It Dv METEOR_SIG_FIELD
signal every field
.El
.Pp
By default, signals will be generated for every frame.
Generation of signals is terminated with the
.Dv METEOR_SIG_MODE_MASK
argument.
.El
.Sh TUNER INTERFACE
Most cards supported by this driver feature a hardware television tuner
on the I2C bus.
The tuner interface to
.Nm
is accessed through
.Pa /dev/tunerN
devices.
The following
.Xr ioctl 2
commands are supported on the tuner interface:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Dv TVTUNER_SETTYPE Fa "unsigned int *"
This command sets the tuner's TV channel set, also sometimes called the TV
channel band.
This setting is used to calculate the proper tuning frequencies.
The desired channel set must be selected before attempting to set the tuner
channel or frequency.
The following is a list of valid channel sets:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -compact -width 28n
.It Dv CHNLSET_NABCST
North America broadcast
.It Dv CHNLSET_CABLEIRC
North America IRC cable
.It Dv CHNLSET_CABLEHRC
North America HRC cable
.It Dv CHNLSET_WEUROPE
Western Europe
.It Dv CHNLSET_JPNBCST

.It Dv CHNLSET_XUSSR
Russia
.It Dv CHNLSET_AUSTRALIA
Australia
.It Dv CHNLSET_FRANCE

.El
.It Dv TVTUNER_GETTYPE Fa "unsigned int *"
This command fetches the tuner's current channel set to the
.Vt unsigned int *
argument.
.It Dv TVTUNER_SETCHNL Fa "unsigned int *"
This command sets the tuner's frequency to a specified channel in the
current channel set.
.It Dv TVTUNER_GETCHNL Fa "unsigned int *"
This command fetches the last selected channel.
Note that it is not necessarily the current channel.
In particular, changing the tuner's frequency by a command other than
.Dv TVTUNER_SETCHNL
will not update this setting, and it defaults to 0 on driver
initialization.
.It Dv TVTUNER_SETFREQ Fa "unsigned int *"
This command sets the tuner's frequency to 1/16th the value of the
.Vt unsigned int *
argument, in MHz.
Note that the current channelset is used to determine frequency
offsets when this command is executed.
.It Dv TVTUNER_GETFREQ Fa "unsigned int *"
This command fetches the tuner's current frequency to the
.Vt unsigned int *
argument.
Note that this value is 16 times the actual tuner frequency, in MHz.
.It Dv BT848_SAUDIO Fa "int *"
This command controls the audio input port and mute state.
The following is a list of valid arguments:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -compact -width 18n
.It Dv AUDIO_TUNER
tuner audio port
.It Dv AUDIO_EXTERN
external audio port
.It Dv AUDIO_INTERN
internal audio port
.It Dv AUDIO_MUTE
mute audio
.It Dv AUDIO_UNMUTE

.El
.It Dv BT848_GAUDIO Fa "int *"
This command fetches the audio input and mute state bits to the
.Vt int *
argument.
.El
.Sh KERNEL OPTIONS
The following kernel configuration options are available:
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxx
.It Cd option BKTR_ALLOC_PAGES=nnn
Specifies the number of contiguous pages to allocate when successfully
probed.
The default number of pages allocated by the kernel is 216.
This means that there are (216*4096) bytes available for use.
.It Cd option BKTR_SYSTEM_DEFAULT="(BROOKTREE_PAL | BROOKTREE_NTSC)"
One of these options can be used to set the default video format for the driver.
This fixed random hangs and lockups with the VideoLogic Captivator PCI card.
.It Cd option BKTR_OVERRIDE_CARD=nnn
Select a specific card (overrides autodetection).
`nnn' is set to one of the names listed and explained below.

.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm
driver first appeared in
.Fx 2.2 .
.Sh AUTHORS
.An -nosplit
The
.Nm
driver is based on the work of
.An Jim Lowe Aq james@miller.cs.uwm.edu ,
.An Mark Tinguely Aq tinguely@plains.nodak.edu ,
.An Amancio Hasty Aq hasty@star\-gate.com ,
.An Roger Hardiman Aq roger@FreeBSD.org
and a bunch of other people.
.Sh CAVEATS
On big-endian architectures it is not possible to program the
card to perform proper byte swapping in 24 bit modes,
therefore only 16 and 32 bit modes are supported.
