Looking for feedback as this is my first NixOS kernel module package.
a driver for the Magewell Pro Capture family of pci-e cards.
Also includes the mwcap-info and mwcap-control utilities, for
changing pixel format settings on the card, among other things.
Uses v4l2 for video output, alsa/pulse for audio output
System configuration option to enable package:
hardware.mwProCapture.enable = true;
Motivation for this change
This allows anyone who owns a pci-e Magewell capture device to capture video or stream and may provide a good base for future capture card related packaging (which is admittedly niche)
Things done
Substituted all hardcoded paths with paths pointing to the correct nixpkgs store output
Executables are patchelf'd and all dependencies are satisfied.
Module has been tested with the 4.9 kernel series and works well
Things to possibly be done
Package the quickstart guide and the users manual somewhere as documentation? Currently nothing is done with these
(nix.useSandbox on NixOS,
or option
build-use-sandbox
innix.conf
on non-NixOS)
./result/bin/
)
