Support for audio/video capture and overlay devices and FM radio
cards. The exact capabilities of each device vary.

This kernel includes support for the new Video for Linux Two API,
(V4L2) as well as the original system. Drivers and applications
need to be rewritten to use V4L2, but drivers for popular cards
and applications for most video capture functions already exist.

Additional info and docs are available on the web at
Documentation for V4L2 is also available on the web at

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called videodev.
