media: docs: split cx2341x.rst into different audiences
This file contains both driver develompent documentation (basically, firmware documentation) and IVTV-specific documentation about VBI and raw formats, focused on uAPI development. Split on two, as they're usually read by different audiences. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>

-Non-compressed file format
---------------------------
-
-The cx23416 can produce (and the cx23415 can also read) raw YUV output. The
-format of a YUV frame is specific to this chip and is called HM12. 'HM' stands
-for 'Hauppauge Macroblock', which is a misnomer as 'Conexant Macroblock' would
-be more accurate.
-
-The format is YUV 4:2:0 which uses 1 Y byte per pixel and 1 U and V byte per
-four pixels.
-
-The data is encoded as two macroblock planes, the first containing the Y
-values, the second containing UV macroblocks.
-
-The Y plane is divided into blocks of 16x16 pixels from left to right
-and from top to bottom. Each block is transmitted in turn, line-by-line.
-
-So the first 16 bytes are the first line of the top-left block, the
-second 16 bytes are the second line of the top-left block, etc. After
-transmitting this block the first line of the block on the right to the
-first block is transmitted, etc.
-
-The UV plane is divided into blocks of 16x8 UV values going from left
-to right, top to bottom. Each block is transmitted in turn, line-by-line.
-
-So the first 16 bytes are the first line of the top-left block and
-contain 8 UV value pairs (16 bytes in total). The second 16 bytes are the
-second line of 8 UV pairs of the top-left block, etc. After transmitting
-this block the first line of the block on the right to the first block is
-transmitted, etc.
-
-The code below is given as an example on how to convert HM12 to separate
-Y, U and V planes. This code assumes frames of 720x576 (PAL) pixels.
-
-The width of a frame is always 720 pixels, regardless of the actual specified
-width.
-
-If the height is not a multiple of 32 lines, then the captured video is
-missing macroblocks at the end and is unusable. So the height must be a
-multiple of 32.

-Format of embedded V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV VBI data
----------------------------------------------------------
-
-Author: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl>
-
-
-This section describes the V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV format of the VBI data
-embedded in an MPEG-2 program stream. This format is in part dictated by some
-hardware limitations of the ivtv driver (the driver for the Conexant cx23415/6
-chips), in particular a maximum size for the VBI data. Anything longer is cut
-off when the MPEG stream is played back through the cx23415.
-
-The advantage of this format is it is very compact and that all VBI data for
-all lines can be stored while still fitting within the maximum allowed size.
-
-The stream ID of the VBI data is 0xBD. The maximum size of the embedded data is
-4 + 43 * 36, which is 4 bytes for a header and 2 * 18 VBI lines with a 1 byte
-header and a 42 bytes payload each. Anything beyond this limit is cut off by
-the cx23415/6 firmware. Besides the data for the VBI lines we also need 36 bits
-for a bitmask determining which lines are captured and 4 bytes for a magic cookie,
-signifying that this data package contains V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV VBI data.
-If all lines are used, then there is no longer room for the bitmask. To solve this
-two different magic numbers were introduced:
-
-'itv0': After this magic number two unsigned longs follow. Bits 0-17 of the first
-unsigned long denote which lines of the first field are captured. Bits 18-31 of
-the first unsigned long and bits 0-3 of the second unsigned long are used for the
-second field.
-
-'ITV0': This magic number assumes all VBI lines are captured, i.e. it implicitly
-implies that the bitmasks are 0xffffffff and 0xf.
-
-After these magic cookies (and the 8 byte bitmask in case of cookie 'itv0') the
-captured VBI lines start:
-
-For each line the least significant 4 bits of the first byte contain the data type.
-Possible values are shown in the table below. The payload is in the following 42
-bytes.
-
-Here is the list of possible data types:
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- #define IVTV_SLICED_TYPE_TELETEXT 0x1 // Teletext (uses lines 6-22 for PAL)
- #define IVTV_SLICED_TYPE_CC 0x4 // Closed Captions (line 21 NTSC)
- #define IVTV_SLICED_TYPE_WSS 0x5 // Wide Screen Signal (line 23 PAL)
- #define IVTV_SLICED_TYPE_VPS 0x7 // Video Programming System (PAL) (line 16)
