dm644x previewer support in psp 3.x

I noticed there is no previewer driver in PSP 03.01.00.37 for dm644x released in July 2010, which is the latest one.  Is there any chance the driver ported to PSP 3.x in the future?  Is there anything big, like architecture or compatibility issue, to prevent it happening?  Thanks in advance.

    I am not aware of any plans for updating the DM6446 support in the newer PSP releases, so I suspect there will not be an official port of the previewer driver. This being said the previewer driver could likely be ported to a newer kernel, though I am not sure what the level of effort would be in this, it is likely significant but not impossible.

  • Thanks for the information.

  • To add to Bernie, davinci drivers ported to new kernel(Media controller framework). It is available here -  http://arago-project.org/git/projects/?p=linux-davinci.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/03.21.00.05.

    This driver doesn't have support for dm644x, will be added in the next update which will happen soon(might be 1 or 2 weeks). Even this will not support previewer for dm6446. But, as Bernie suggested It can be achieved with some effort.
