[PATCH 5/6] v4l: Add source event change for bit-depth

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This event indicate that the source color bit-depth is changed
during run-time. The client must get the new format and re-allocate
buffers for it. This can usually happens with video decoder (encoders)
when the bit-stream color bit-depth is changed from 8 to 10bits
or vice versa.
