* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-JPEG:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_JPEG``
- 'JPEG'
- TBD. See also :ref:`VIDIOC_G_JPEGCOMP <VIDIOC_G_JPEGCOMP>`,
:ref:`VIDIOC_S_JPEGCOMP <VIDIOC_G_JPEGCOMP>`.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MPEG:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MPEG``
- 'MPEG'
- MPEG multiplexed stream. The actual format is determined by
extended control ``V4L2_CID_MPEG_STREAM_TYPE``, see
:ref:`mpeg-control-id`.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-H264:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_H264``
- 'H264'
- H264 video elementary stream with start codes.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-H264-NO-SC:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_H264_NO_SC``
- 'AVC1'
- H264 video elementary stream without start codes.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-H264-MVC:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_H264_MVC``
- 'M264'
- H264 MVC video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-H264-SLICE:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_H264_SLICE``
- 'S264'
- H264 parsed slice data, without the start code and as
extracted from the H264 bitstream. This format is adapted for
stateless video decoders that implement an H264 pipeline
(using the :ref:`mem2mem` and :ref:`media-request-api`).
This pixelformat has two modifiers that must be set at least once
through the ``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_DECODE_MODE``
and ``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_START_CODE`` controls.
In addition, metadata associated with the frame to decode are
required to be passed through the ``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_SPS``,
``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_PPS``,
``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_SCALING_MATRIX``,
``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_SLICE_PARAMS`` and
``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_DECODE_PARAMS`` controls. See the
:ref:`associated Codec Control IDs <v4l2-mpeg-h264>`. Exactly
one output and one capture buffer must be provided for use
with this pixel format. The output buffer must contain the
appropriate number of macroblocks to decode a full
corresponding frame to the matching capture buffer.
.. note::
This format is not yet part of the public kernel API and it
is expected to change.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-H263:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_H263``
- 'H263'
- H263 video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MPEG1:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MPEG1``
- 'MPG1'
- MPEG1 video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MPEG2:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MPEG2``
- 'MPG2'
- MPEG2 video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MPEG2-SLICE:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MPEG2_SLICE``
- 'MG2S'
- MPEG-2 parsed slice data, as extracted from the MPEG-2 bitstream.
This format is adapted for stateless video decoders that implement a
MPEG-2 pipeline (using the :ref:`mem2mem` and :ref:`media-request-api`).
Metadata associated with the frame to decode is required to be passed
through the ``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_MPEG2_SLICE_PARAMS`` control and
quantization matrices can optionally be specified through the
``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_MPEG2_QUANTIZATION`` control.
See the :ref:`associated Codec Control IDs <v4l2-mpeg-mpeg2>`.
Exactly one output and one capture buffer must be provided for use with
this pixel format. The output buffer must contain the appropriate number
of macroblocks to decode a full corresponding frame to the matching
capture buffer.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-MPEG4:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_MPEG4``
- 'MPG4'
- MPEG4 video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-XVID:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_XVID``
- 'XVID'
- Xvid video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-VC1-ANNEX-G:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_VC1_ANNEX_G``
- 'VC1G'
- VC1, SMPTE 421M Annex G compliant stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-VC1-ANNEX-L:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_VC1_ANNEX_L``
- 'VC1L'
- VC1, SMPTE 421M Annex L compliant stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-VP8:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_VP8``
- 'VP80'
- VP8 video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-VP8-FRAME:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_VP8_FRAME``
- 'VP8F'
- VP8 parsed frame, as extracted from the container.
This format is adapted for stateless video decoders that implement a
VP8 pipeline (using the :ref:`mem2mem` and :ref:`media-request-api`).
Metadata associated with the frame to decode is required to be passed
through the ``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_VP8_FRAME_HEADER`` control.
See the :ref:`associated Codec Control IDs <v4l2-mpeg-vp8>`.
Exactly one output and one capture buffer must be provided for use with
this pixel format. The output buffer must contain the appropriate number
of macroblocks to decode a full corresponding frame to the matching
capture buffer.
.. note::
This format is not yet part of the public kernel API and it
is expected to change.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-VP9:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_VP9``
- 'VP90'
- VP9 video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-HEVC:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_HEVC``

- HEVC/H.265 video elementary stream.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-FWHT:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_FWHT``
- 'FWHT'
- Video elementary stream using a codec based on the Fast Walsh Hadamard
Transform. This codec is implemented by the vicodec ('Virtual Codec')
driver. See the codec-fwht.h header for more details.
* .. _V4L2-PIX-FMT-FWHT-STATELESS:
- ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_FWHT_STATELESS``
- 'SFWH'
- Same format as V4L2_PIX_FMT_FWHT but requires stateless codec implementation.
See the :ref:`associated Codec Control IDs <v4l2-mpeg-fwht>`.
