Well, This is what the libv4l2 says:
This file implements libv4l2, which offers v4l2_ prefixed versions
of
open/close/etc. The API is 100% the same as directly opening
/dev/videoX
using regular open/close/etc, the big difference is that format
conversion
but if I open additional files in v4l2_open(), API is no longer the
same, as unix open() is defined to open just one file descriptor.
Now. There is autogain support in libv4lconvert, but it expects to use
same fd for camera and for the gain... which does not work with
subdevs.
Of course, opening subdevs by name like this is not really
acceptable. But can you suggest a method that is?
Thanks,
Pavel
