From 35378434e739ac869d0146a47133a0f9d6fd2ee8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trent Piepho Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2007 17:44:54 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] V4L/DVB (6391): bttv: SPICT ioctl doesn't work with vlc The bttv driver instists that the depth specified in the call to VIDIOCSPICT match the pixel format specified in the same call. vlc doesn't set the depth field, which makes the SPICT ioctl always fail. The V4L1 standard is not clear on how most operation are supposed to work, and this is no exception. The depth field would appear to be entirely redundant, as the pixel format specifies a specific depth. It could be that this field was only meant for output from the *G*PICT ioctl and should be ignored in *S*PICT. This is in fact what the v4l1-compat wrapper does.
