Hans,

Do you have any comment here regarding Rob's hope that there could be
some generic properties created for video port bindings? Anyone else
you know of who should chime in here?

The TDA1997x allows mapping its internal video output bus to its
physical pin in a fairly flexible way. I don't know how unique this is
to other chips.

Regards,

Tim
