This camera has more like three modes: preview (context A) up to 800x600, up to 30fps, YUV/RGB capture video (context B) up to 1600x1200, up to 15fps, YUV/RGB/JPEG capture stills (context B) up to 1600x1200, sequence of 1 or more frames with no fixed timing, YUV/RGB/JPEG I have implemented switching between the first two of these, but the choice is forced by the framerate, resolution and format that the user requests, so I have not exposed any interface to change the context, the driver just chooses the one that can do what the user wants. As for the third mode, I do not currently plan to implement it, but if I was going to then I think the only API that would be required is V4L2_MODE_HIGHQUALITY in v4l2_captureparm.capturemode.
