>One area of Linux hardware testing I haven't explored much in many years has been modern USB video capture for the lack of said hardware. The last time I did much video capturing on Linux was during the Hauppauge PCI card days. It turns out though that USB video capture of 4K 60 FPS content has been a pain point under Linux but is finally smoothing out with newer versions of the Linux kernel.
Phoronix reader Johannes Brüderl wrote in about the situation and how it's now changing due to a new quirk path within the Linux kernel. He explained that it's been "extremely complicated" handling 4K 60 FPS video capture with PCIe card support being spotty due to typically lacking Linux drivers for most hardware or otherwise being reverse-engineered. With USB devices while it typically works fine with UVC, there has been USB video capture card issues experienced if trying to achieve 4K 60 FPS recordings.
