VPFE capture can accept frames continuously from the sensor synchronized to PCLK, HSYNC and VSYNC and output frames to application using QBUF/DQBUF. In our implementation, we have timing parameters for the sensor to do streaming at various resolutions and fps. So application calls S_STD to set these timings. I am not sure if this is an acceptable way of implementing it. Any comments?
