If I force EDID on the sender, it also works without setting EDID on the tc358743: # Make the detected dv timings current on TC358743 media-ctl --set-dv '"tc358743 1-000f":0' # Enable link between TC358743 and MIPI CSI-2 receiver, set format media-ctl --links '"tc358743 1-000f":0->"mipi-csi2":0[1]' media-ctl --set-v4l2 '"tc358743 1-000f":0[fmt:UYVY/1920x1080]' # Enable link between MIPI CSI-2 receiver and mux, set format, # this switches the mux input to MIPI CSI-2 media-ctl --links '"mipi-csi2":1->"mipi_ipu1_mux":0[1]' media-ctl --set-v4l2 '"mipi-csi2":1[fmt:UYVY/1920x1080]' # Enable link between mux and CSI, set format media-ctl --links '"mipi_ipu1_mux":2->"IPU0 CSI0":0[1]' media-ctl --set-v4l2 '"mipi_ipu1_mux":2[fmt:UYVY/1920x1080]' # this disables frame skipping and sets the nominal frame interval # that will be returned by v4l2-ctl --get-parm media-ctl --set-v4l2 '"IPU0 CSI0":0[fmt:UYVY/1920x1080@1/60]' # Set capture format at CSI output media-ctl --set-v4l2 '"IPU0 CSI0":1[fmt:UYVY2X8/960x540]' I'd like to handle this format propagation in libv4l2. # Capture gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video0 io-mode=dmabuf ! video/x-raw,format=YUY2,framerate=30/1 ! kmssink > All the EDID v4l2-ctl commands > return "Inappropriate ioctl for device". The capture driver currently does not collect its subdevices' controls to present them on the main video device. Also this would only work for controls that appear only once in the configured pipeline. I once hacked v4l2-ctl to allow it to directly set subdev controls on the /dev/v4l2-subdev nodes: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6097201/ but the correct solution seems to be to have a subdevice specific QUERYCAP alternative. > Do not hesitate to CC me to Boundary Devices related patches so I can > test them and give some feedback. I'll do that, thanks in advance for testing. regards Philipp -- 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
