OK, I can give it a try that way.

Possibly. That will require reworking of the way the driver works
today, since the vpif driver doesn't request interrupts, but the capture
and display drivers both register interrupts, one per channel. I'll
have a closer look.

For video out, the way I read the spec, and based on the schematics,
there appears to be a separate 16-bit parallel bus, so the data-shift on
the video-display endpoints should probably be zero and 16 like for
catpure. Anyways, I'll get to that when I get to the display part.
