A few points to consider: 1) At the patch, you should also patch the V4L2 docbook files, to provide a clean description of those new formats; 2) Please submit this patch together with the patch series that adds a driver using the new formats; 3) Please send the patches to add support for those new formats also to v4l-utils, in order to have it properly supported on userspace. > > BRs > > BRs > Xiaolin > -- > 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 -- Cheers, Mauro -- 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
