Thanks for looking into this. As per GStreamer code, I see 3 alias for
JPEG. V4L2_PIX_FMT_MJPEG/JPEG/PJPG. I don't know the context, this code
was written before I knew GStreamer existed. It's possible there is a
subtle difference, I have never looked at it, but clearly all our JPEG
decoder handle these as being the same.
