2012-01-23[media] V4L2: Add per-device-node capabilitiesHans Verkuil
If V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS is set, then the new device_caps field is filled with the capabilities of the opened device node. The capabilities field traditionally contains the capabilities of the physical device, being a superset of all capabilities available at the several device nodes. E.g., if you open /dev/video0, then if it contains VBI caps then that means that there is a corresponding vbi node as well. And the capabilities field of both the video and vbi nodes should contain identical caps. However, it would be very useful to also have a capabilities field that contains just the caps for the currently open device, hence the new CAP bit and field.

2011-12-30[media] v4l: Add new alpha component controlSylwester Nawrocki
The V4L2_CID_ALPHA_COMPONENT control is intended for the video capture or memory-to-memory devices that are capable of setting up the per-pixel alpha component to some arbitrary value. It allows to set the alpha component for all pixels to an arbitrary value.

2011-09-21[media] videodev2.h: add V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_VOLATILEHans Verkuil
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.

2011-07-27[media] DocBook: Move all media docbook stuff into its own directoryMauro Carvalho Chehab
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.
