great. I'll leave my latest source at

	http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/bt848.tgz

they include

	sys/pci/brktree_reg.h
	sys/pci/brooktree848.c
	sys/i386/include/ioctl_bt848.h

just get it when you are ready to work on them.  They have kind of
stabilized now, since I have reliable yuv packed and planar mode in
single frame capture, plus working support to decode Teletext in
software (I had to disable the various lowpass filters on the Y
component), so I will not make intrusive changes to the code anymore.

and I am not going to use it either, at least for the time being.
Now that I am becoming familiar with the Bt848 code I might try to
write some code to support the native VIC format (whatever it is).

agreed.
