8 | Some notes regarding the cx18 driver for the Conexant CX23418 MPEG |
| 9 | encoder chip: | |

| 86d674a1 | 11 | 1) Currently supported are: |
| 1c1e45d1 | 12 | |
| 86d674a1 HV |
13 | - Hauppauge HVR-1600 |
| 14 | - Compro VideoMate H900 | |

18 | 2) Some people have problems getting the i2c bus to work. |
| 19 | The symptom is that the eeprom cannot be read and the card is | |
| 20 | unusable. This is probably fixed, but if you have problems | |
| 19f59460 | 21 | then post to the video4linux or ivtv-users mailing list. |

| 86d674a1 | 23 | 3) VBI (raw or sliced) has not yet been implemented. |
| 1c1e45d1 | 24 | |
| 86d674a1 | 25 | 4) MPEG indexing is not yet implemented. |
| 1c1e45d1 | 26 | |
| 86d674a1 | 27 | 5) The driver is still a bit rough around the edges, this should |
| 1c1e45d1 HV |
28 | improve over time. |
