[media] cx2341x.rst: add contents of README.vbi
Finally, adds the content of README.vbi at cx2341x.rst after its conversion to ReST format. Now, add information about this chipset and its driver is inside a single chapter at the media/v4l-drivers book. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

Format of embedded V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV VBI data
|
||||
---------------------------------------------------------
|

Author: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl>

||||
|
||||
|
||||
This section describes the V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV format of the VBI data
|
||||
embedded in an MPEG-2 program stream. This format is in part dictated by some
|
||||
hardware limitations of the ivtv driver (the driver for the Conexant cx23415/6
|
||||
chips), in particular a maximum size for the VBI data. Anything longer is cut
|
||||
off when the MPEG stream is played back through the cx23415.
|
||||
|
||||
The advantage of this format is it is very compact and that all VBI data for
|
||||
all lines can be stored while still fitting within the maximum allowed size.
|
||||
|
||||
The stream ID of the VBI data is 0xBD. The maximum size of the embedded data is
|
||||
4 + 43 * 36, which is 4 bytes for a header and 2 * 18 VBI lines with a 1 byte
|
||||
header and a 42 bytes payload each. Anything beyond this limit is cut off by
|
||||
the cx23415/6 firmware. Besides the data for the VBI lines we also need 36 bits
|
||||
for a bitmask determining which lines are captured and 4 bytes for a magic cookie,
|
||||
signifying that this data package contains V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV VBI data.
|
||||
If all lines are used, then there is no longer room for the bitmask. To solve this
|
||||
two different magic numbers were introduced:
|
||||
|
||||
'itv0': After this magic number two unsigned longs follow. Bits 0-17 of the first
|
||||
unsigned long denote which lines of the first field are captured. Bits 18-31 of
|
||||
the first unsigned long and bits 0-3 of the second unsigned long are used for the
|
||||
second field.
|
||||
|
||||
'ITV0': This magic number assumes all VBI lines are captured, i.e. it implicitly
|
||||
implies that the bitmasks are 0xffffffff and 0xf.
|
||||
|
||||
After these magic cookies (and the 8 byte bitmask in case of cookie 'itv0') the
|
||||
captured VBI lines start:
|
||||
|
||||
For each line the least significant 4 bits of the first byte contain the data type.
|
||||
Possible values are shown in the table below. The payload is in the following 42
|
||||
bytes.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is the list of possible data types:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|

#define IVTV_SLICED_TYPE_TELETEXT 0x1 // Teletext (uses lines 6-22 for PAL)
