Re: Request for feedback : New Panel-fitter property for connectors

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

 



To expose the panel fitter for arbitrary use by User-space, we will expose the manual scaling ratio & Input/Src size info to User, apart from the available scaling modes like Full screen, Centered, Aspect. 
Please suggest that how shall we extend the current interface to incorporate these extra info, considering the options we have .
DRM_MODE_PROP_ENUM
DRM_MODE_PROP_RANGE
DRM_MODE_PROP_BITMASK
DRM_MODE_PROP_BLOB

Best Regards

You can extend the current interface to add the extra modes (letter, pillarbox, and later the manual toggle).

Agreed, this is how we have talked about exposing the panel fitter for arbitrary use by userspace (such as overscan compensation).
