For the
record: Pieter Palmers has written (in a tremendous effort) a
large part of AV/C descriptors parser. This part is still not
completed and needs some clean up, though a great job! Meanwhile, I
have been working on the basic framework (design and implementation).
Ok, would this make a good addition to libavc1394? Yeah, I read about these proprietary protocols from
links off your blog,
but I can't help but believe they are probably just some variant of the
IEC 61883 AMDTP protocol and can be likely figured out -- at least for
the core functionality. However, I do not have a device to know for
sure. Probably special register addresses and value formats are used for
proprietary controls - not so easy to figure out.
For the time being, we will concentrate on the devices which are
standard complient. The M-Audio device will be considered later.
