Hi Marek

Thanks for your comments. I was just trying to find a way to stop
streaming while in read/write mode without having to close the
descriptor. I thought reusing streamoff was more clever than creating
a new ioctl.

Read()/write() mode is mainly designed for old and legacy applications. Those applications assume that the only reliable way to stop streaming is to close the fd. New tools should use libv4l and ioctl-based api.

Best regards
