NTSC digitized raw data using HD 5500 card
I have some questions regarding the card HD 5500 card.
My problem is with the analog capture. The card is installed and works for both digital and analog TV.
What am looking for is to capture digitized raw data ( sampled at 4 Fsc=14.3 MHz).
In other words, I want to make the decoder of this card bypass the the built-in Y/C separation block (Comb filtering, Notch filtering ....etc).
My question : is it possible to do this?
Because my objective is to get a digitized raw data (NTSC-M) even if the sampling frequency is 8 Fsc MHz or 27 MHz. I need this data for further processing (Synch and color burst detection, Y/C separation and deinterlacing will be done in software (MATLAB)). In this case what will be the file extension of this raw data? will it be .raw?
I am using Xawtv (Streamer) for capturing. Please send me your help.

The Cx2388{0,1,2,3} chip on that card is capable of capturing raw data at 4xFsc in 16 bit or 8xFsc in 8 bit. You have the choice between three modes:
1. VBI line mode
The RISC program gets a fixed number of samples per line and can thus interleave the fields in memory.
2. VBI frame mode
The RISC program gets a fixed number of samples per field including all sync impulses between lines.
3. CAP_RAW_ALL
"continuous raw data mode capture"
The datasheet doesn't tell us what happens if we enable this.
Unfortunately only "1" has been implemented in the cx88 driver and only for the lines prior to the active region.
Martin Dudok van Heel from GNU Radio made some modifications to the cx88 driver several years ago:

You could ask him about his progress.
In the end you want to do the same thing as the GNU Radio project.
The Bt8xx ancestors support "1" and "2" with 8 bit samples at 8xFsc. The bttv driver allows to capture the active region with both modes. "1" by setting v4l2_vbi_format's start and count values to high values "2" by using, uhm, VIDEO_PALETTE_RAW, which has been removed recently

Won't work.
You need to write your own small application.
