v4l is an XFree86 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 XF86Config 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 XF86Config(5x)
for general configuration details.
This section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.
