2011-11-04[media] v4l: Add AUTO option for the V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY controlSylwester Nawrocki1-2/+3
V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY control allows applications to instruct a driver what is the power line frequency so an appropriate filter can be used by the device to cancel flicker by compensating the light intensity ripple. Currently in the menu we have entries for 50 Hz and 60 Hz and for entirely disabling the anti-flicker filter. However some devices are capable of automatically detecting the frequency, so add V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_AUTO entry for them.

2011-09-21[media] videodev2.h: add V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_VOLATILEHans Verkuil3-1/+25
Add a new VOLATILE control flag that is set for volatile controls. That way applications know whether the value of the control is volatile (i.e. can change continuously) or not. Until now this was an internal property, but it is useful to know in userspace as well. A typical use case is the gain value when autogain is on. In that case the hardware will continuously adjust the gain based various environmental factors. This patch just adds and documents the flag, it's not yet used.

Normally no control events will go to the filehandle that called the VIDIOC_S_CTRL/VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS ioctls. This is to prevent a feedback loop.

2011-07-28[media] DocBook: Use base64 for gif/png filesMauro Carvalho Chehab12-3/+0
The patch utility doesn't work with non-binary files. This causes some tools to break, like generating tarball targets and the scripts that generate diff patches at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/. So, let's convert all binaries to ascii using base64, and add a logic at Makefile to convert them back into binaries at runtime.

2011-07-28[media] DocBook: Move all media docbook stuff into its own directoryMauro Carvalho Chehab147-0/+33126
This patch addresses several issues pointed by Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> at changeset ece722c: - In the generated index.html file, "media" is listed first, but it should be listed in alphabetical order, not first. - The generated files are (hidden) in .tmpmedia/ - The link from the top-level index.html file to "media" is to media/index.html, but the file is actually in .tmpmedia/media/index.html - Please build docs with and without using "O=builddir" and test that. - Would it be possible for media to have its own Makefile instead of merging into this one? Due to the way cleandocs target works, I had to rename the media DocBook to media_api, otherwise cleandocs would remove the /media directory.
