What about If the pad is linked to any other pad, at least one of the links must be enabled for the entity to be able to stream. There could be temporary reasons (e.g. device configuration dependent) for the pad to need enabled links; the absence of the flag doesn't imply there is none. The flag has no effect on pads without connected links. > > > + </row> > > > </tbody> > > > </tgroup> > > > </table> -- 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
