I'm not aware of any BSD driver projects for the Miro hardware, although there is a linux project for it, and the DC30. Currently, there is no video4linux code in FreeBSD. I've half re-written the Bt848/bt878 bktr driver to use the V4L API, but never finished the job. However, I would recomend you use either V4L (by Alan Cox) or V4L2, the newer video API from Bill Dirks. This is where all the development and leading edge stuff is with new video capture applications. > If that'll be the case, I try to create the video pseudo-device in the same > way how linux does, to be as much compatible as possible.
