Provide functionality to support cards such as the Matrox Millenium , Mystique which have a different pixel order BGR as opposed to RGB which most of us probably have. 2. Pal support . If an European steps in and does not have the Bt848 data book perhaps someone from the group can convert to PS the relevant material and make it available to the volunteer. 3. Fix the ioctl problem that some of you have reported. The Bt848 driver reports a tsleep error due to the driver failing to capture a frame. 4. Fix the problem of frames odd or even frames missing in apps such as vic. I am going to work on 3 and 4. Any volunteers for 1 and 2? When problems 3 and 4 are fixed we will be just a short step away from prime time release. Tnks, Amancio
