    It seem no default, it activate the handling of vidix if it found 
the first 5 characters.

    I don'y know what happen if you pass only 'vidix'

    wrong, in the code there is a
      
       if(memcmp(sd,"lvo:",4) == 0) lvo_name = &sd[4]; /* lvo_name will 
be valid within init() */
          ....

    probably you can put anything after that.

    I found this looking at the code, if someone can play with this and 
give a REAL example is better ...

    Yes, in the code there is the check

        } else if (arg[0] == '0' || arg[0] == '1' || arg[0] == '2' || 
arg[0] == '3') {
            dxr3_device_num = arg[0];
        }

    The test is made case insensitive so is good  to have it lowercase 
(the test is made with PAL so i tought that it must be upper case).
