This section describes the steps required to build and use video driver to capture or display video images on Linux using an ADSP-SC5xx board, a Video Decoder EI3 Extender Board and a Video Encoder EI3 Extender Board.
The Linux Kernel Media Subsystems provides support for devices like webcams, streaming capture and output, analog TV, digital TV, AM/FM radio, Sofware Digital Radio (SDR) and remote controllers.
The Linux Media Infrastructure API converges the kernel to userspace APIs used on media drivers. It has 4 parts:

The Enhanced Parallel Peripheral Interface (EPPI) is a half-duplex, bidirectional port with a dedicated clock pin and three frame sync (FS) pins directly output from the processor. It can support direct connections to active TFT LCDs, parallel A/D and D/A converters, video encoders and decoders, image sensor modules and other general-purpose peripherals. We can find EPPI port from P1A connector on the back of ADSP-SC5XX EZ-Board.
Refer below pages for the detailed useage of ADI video encoders and decoders ADV7842, ADV7511, ADV7343 on ADSP-SC5XX EZ-Board.
