Hi HSV is a cylindrical-coordinate representation of a color. It is very useful for computer vision because the Hue component can be used to segment a scene. My plan was to add a format in videodev2.h and then add support for vivid, libv4l2-convert and qv4l2. There are also plans to prepare a patch for opencv to use this format without any software conversion, and also for Gstreamer... but all these changes depend on the changes on videodev2.h The question is how open would be the linux-media community for such a change, considering that there is no real device driver using it in tree ( Our hardware is currently out of tree_ Today we only have an HSV format on v4l2-mediabus.h V4L2_MBUS_FROM_MEDIA_BUS_FMT(AHSV8888_1X32), but no HSV format on videodev2.h Thanks!!! -- Ricardo Ribalda -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
