I need to see the v4l2-compliance output for the various video devices that
are created. Please compile directly from the https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/
repository to be sure you use the latest code.

Just run 'v4l2-compliance -d /dev/videoX'.

When you post v2 I'd like to see the output of that utility in the cover email.

If the utility reports fails and you aren't clear what's going on, then just
mail me (with a CC to Sakari).

It hasn't been used much (if at all) for video devices streaming metadata, so
you may run into issues with that.
