No. I thought it was fully correct. I am just curious how the headers
and trailers are to be generated.

The original poster's question of an apparent lack of a raw mode is
still an issue for apps that want to view the capture live. But I think
Plexstore's v4l2 driver and sample capture code for Linux were a very
nice thing. The card is more for making DVDs than viewing, I suspect.
