Hello Guys.
I need the CVBS output for a project with 4.11 kernel. By default it dosen`t work. Is there any way to enable it in FriendlyCore or Armbian ? It seems that orange pi zero has activated this option.

thanks.

I saw it on IRC, but I haven't tried by myself yet. It is definitely not present in 4.11.y

in the Armbian , (currently 4.14.y) i see some config for the output graphic in "setenv ..." .
is it possible to change it to the CVBS port ?

No, it is not on this level yet. You need to add certain patches to the source code and recompile. I don't have the option to test this function. When / if it reaches armbian, this will be accessible via armbian-config -> system -> hardware

Hello,
I'm really desperate to get CVBS working.
I've modified sun8i-h3.dts file following advice on https://github.com/stevenj/h3-tve/blob/ ... e-11.patch.

Any help with this would be really appreciated.

Kind regards

As you can see there are changes also in the video driver code and if you didn't apply those is simply can't work. IMO you need them too and kernel recompilation is needed.

But since there are many changes to the video driver lately, this might not just work ... and it is also possible that developers will add CVBS in by default. In a few months.

Hello Igor,

thanks for your response.

I'll try with another device, maybe a Raspberry Pi.

Kind regards
