v4l is an XServerName driver for video4linux cards. It provides
a Xvideo extention port for video overlay. Just add the driver to the module
list within the module section of your XConfigFile file if you want to
use it. There are no config options.
Note that the the extmod module is
also required for the Xvideo support (and lots of other extentions too).
The v4l driver works with every piece of hardware which
is supported by a video4linux (kernel-) device driver and is able to handle
video overlay.
bt848/bt878-based TV cards are the most popular hardware these
days.
Please refer to XConfigFile(5)
for general configuration
details. This section only covers configuration details specific to this
driver.
