Is there any driver for TW6816?

There are very few capture cards that have drivers for FreeBSD. I don't think this is one of them.

If you're looking for driver developers you should really contact the freebsd-drivers@ or freebsd-multimedia@ mailing lists. This is mostly a user centered forum, there aren't a lot of developers on here.
 
Hello, my name is Martin, and I am a PhD student at the University of Technology in Brno.

After a long period of troubleshooting and searching, I decided to write a message here to see if somebody could help me.

I am currently dealing with a problem... I have an older computer with a multimedia video controller from Intersil Techwell TW6816. The issue is that my computer is running Fedora 27, specifically kernel version 4.18.19-100.fc27, and there are no drivers available for this version. So, I decided to build and install the drivers myself. I found two open-source repositories on GitHub, but neither of them works correctly.

GitHub - mordjah/tw68-v2-gentoo: kernel driver for Techwell tw6801 tw6802 tw6804 tw6816 (and i hope, or at least eventually.. tw6805a and tw6868 )

The complications started already during the build process. Could you please advise me or guide me somehow? Would you be able to provide working drivers or some instructions on how to proceed?

Thank you, best regards,
Martin Kiac
