Well, from my side, feel free to drop those 3 utilities. If you drop v4lgrab, you'll need to check the DocBook Makefile scripts, as it used to have some automation to include it at the media DocBook.

I never used v4l2-ctl for streaming (didn't even know/remember) that it was capable of doing that ;) Looking at --help-streaming, though, one thing that it is not clear there is what's the format of the output, when --stream-to= is used. Btw, I think that one big miss on v4l2-ctl is the lack of a man page witch would have an EXAMPLES section explaining things like that. One of the advantages of v4l2grab is that it takes per-frame snapshots, instead of writing a stream file. Those snapshots help to identify, for example, if there are interlacing issues on a frame, or if some frames have some other problems. Also, v4l2grab is a good example of how to use libv4l, and it is enclosed at DocBook (not sure if we're using automation to allow including the latest version of it): http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-dvb-apis/v4l2grab-example.html So, I don't think we should remove it. > > Regards, > > Hans > -- 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
