Hdmi grabber?

Hello would anyone know if this device could work as a HDMI video grabber with passthrough?

EZ Cap ezcap261 Capture Streaming

Its shows its compatible with linux..

Ok ill order one up and see

Sorry for the delay.. just ordered it should see it in April..

Ok well got this device sooner then expected, hopefully its plug and play...

Maybe a dev can chime in to guide me on how to see if we can make it work..

i got this from HyperCon

ssh in: hyperion-v4l2:
ssh in: version : V1.03.4 (brindosch-c750c41/dc6a602-1522918225

ssh out: VIDIOC_S_STD ERROR 25, Inappropriate ioctl for device

and from putty

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ v4l2-ctl --list-devices

I guess MJPG isnt a supported format.. well i guess thats $100 wasted.. but was worth the try... if anyone has any other way to get this to work please chime in..

can you try to set another pixel format?

this is the problem for sure, when i do a v4l2-ctl --list-formats 'MJPG' is the only supported pixel format, like I said I guess this means I'am out of luck

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ v4l2-ctl --list-formats
ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT

I'm willing to try anything with some guidance, I have some linux experience but nothing crazy to the standards of a developer..

Hm I don't know exactly how it works but I took a quick look in the sourcecode.
Perhabs it is possible to implement it for hyperion. But I don't how different & difficult the implementation would be.

@Paulchen-Panther do you have an idea?

I'm willing to try anything with some guidance, I have some linux experience but nothing crazy to the standards of a developer..

So I guess nothing we can do?

Quote from Paulchen-Panther

Please excuse me for contacting you so late. I had a look last weekend and i think it is possible to implement the MJPEG encoding. I will come to programming this Sunday.
I have no V4L2 device what MJPEG outputs, so I will try to use a virtual device.
I will not forget you, I promise.

That awesome thanks... let me know and I'm More then willing to test and try what you need

Quote from Paulchen-Panther

Could you test my branch? I added some debug output in case it did not work. So please start Hyperion with the debug switch. (hyperion -d)
If any questions, please do not be shy.
Note: Please install the additional dependency libjpeg-dev (sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev)

You might need to dumb that down for me sorry. How do I install your branch of hyperion?
