Selecting the CFA pattern requires modifying several registers: - PCR:CFA_FMT 0x0: Mode 0: conventional Bayer. 0x1: Mode 1: horizontal 2x downsample. 0x2: Mode 2: bypass CFA stage (RGB Foveon X3) 0x3: Mode 3: horizontal and vertical 2x downsample. 0x4: Mode 4: Super CCD Honeycom movie mode sensor. 0x5: Mode5: bypass CFA stage (RRRR GGGG BBBB Foveon X3). The default value is Bayer, you won't need to change that. - WBSEL This register selects which white balance coefficient is applied to which pixel. This needs to match the Bayer pattern. - CFA table That's where the bulk of the work will be. The CFA coefficients table needs to be adjusted based on the Bayer pattern. Unfortunately the publicly available TRM doesn't document how the table should be computed. > Thank you for any pointer on this issue. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- 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
