+
+This driver enable the use of video4linux compatible applications with the
+Motion Eye camera. This driver requires the "Sony Laptop Extras" driver (which
+can be found in the "Misc devices" section of the kernel configuration utility)
+to be compiled and installed (using its "camera=1" parameter).
+
+It can do at maximum 30 fps @ 320x240 or 15 fps @ 640x480.
+
+Grabbing is supported in packed YUV colorspace only.
+
+MJPEG hardware grabbing is supported via a private API (see below).
+
+Hardware supported
+------------------
+
+This driver supports the 'second' version of the MotionEye camera :)
+
+The first version was connected directly on the video bus of the Neomagic
+video card and is unsupported.
+
+The second one, made by Kawasaki Steel is fully supported by this
+driver (PCI vendor/device is 0x136b/0xff01)
+
+The third one, present in recent (more or less last year) Picturebooks
+(C1M* models), is not supported. The manufacturer has given the specs
+to the developers under a NDA (which allows the development of a GPL
+driver however), but things are not moving very fast (see
+http://r-engine.sourceforge.net/) (PCI vendor/device is 0x10cf/0x2011).
+
+There is a forth model connected on the USB bus in TR1* Vaio laptops.
+This camera is not supported at all by the current driver, in fact
+little information if any is available for this camera
+(USB vendor/device is 0x054c/0x0107).
+
+Driver options
+--------------
+
+Several options can be passed to the meye driver using the standard
+module argument syntax (<param>=<value> when passing the option to the
+module or meye.<param>=<value> on the kernel boot line when meye is
+statically linked into the kernel). Those options are:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+	gbuffers:	number of capture buffers, default is 2 (32 max)
+
+	gbufsize:	size of each capture buffer, default is 614400
+
+	video_nr:	video device to register (0 = /dev/video0, etc)
+
+Module use
+----------
+
+In order to automatically load the meye module on use, you can put those lines
+in your /etc/modprobe.d/meye.conf file:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+	alias char-major-81 videodev
+	alias char-major-81-0 meye
+	options meye gbuffers=32
+
+Usage:
+------
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+	xawtv >= 3.49 (<http://bytesex.org/xawtv/>)
+		for display and uncompressed video capture:
+
+			xawtv -c /dev/video0 -geometry 640x480
+				or
+			xawtv -c /dev/video0 -geometry 320x240
+
+	motioneye (<http://popies.net/meye/>)
+		for getting ppm or jpg snapshots, mjpeg video
+
+Bugs / Todo
+-----------
+
+- 'motioneye' still uses the meye private v4l1 API extensions.
