The A83T has two video pipelines in parallel that looks quite similar to the other SoCs. The video planes are handled through a controller called the mixer, and the video signal is then passed to the timing controller (TCON). And while there is two instances of the mixers and TCONs, they have a significant number of differences. The TCONs are quite easy to deal with, one is supposed to generate TV (in the broader term, so including things like HDMI) signals, the other one LCD (so RGB, LVDS, DSI) signals. And while they are called TCON0 and TCON1 in the A83t datasheet, newer SoCs call them TCON-TV and TCON-LCD, which seems more appropriate. However, the mixers differ mostly by their capabilities, with some features being available only in the first one, or the number of planes they expose, but also through their register layout. And while the capabilities could be represented as properties, the register layout differences would need to express all the registers offsets as properties, which is usually quite bad. Especially since documentation on that hardware block is close to non-existant and we don't even have the list of all those registers in the first place. So let's call them mixer 0 and 1 in our compatibles, even though the name is pretty bad... At the moment, we only have tested the code on a board that has a single display output, so we're leaving the tcon-tv and mixer1 out.
