Anyone got Elgato 4k60 Pro Mk.2 working on Linux?

The only driver option I have found is from https://github.com/stoth68000/sc0710 but I'm having a problem building that and the documentation is sparse.

Before pursuing with this I wonder, has anyone managed to get this card working on Linux, please? I would like to use this card which has performed well on a Windows setup, but given that Elgato does not provide Linux support, and that I can find no evidence of anyone having gotten it to work on Linux, I wonder if I may be chasing my tail, and that perhaps I should be looking at other capture options instead?

You find a solution?
 
Unless there's another module available, then you'd have to build that one for your kernel and load it. That's if it even works - looks like development on it stalled 3 years back.
 
FWIW - it won't build on modern kernels because they've migrated from videobuf to videobuf2. I'm tempted to have a quick crack at getting it to build, but it could take a few weeks. And there's no guarantee that it'll work. I don't have one of these cards to test on.
 
Oh fantastic, that saves me having to do that.

I built the module at @Tuna's link on kernel 6.14.0-37 generic, which is the current HWE kernel for Ubuntu 24.04.

It should be good for most modern kernels by my eye.
