Arguments

|
Description
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
The current video standard determines a nominal number of frames per
|
|
second. If less than this number of frames is to be captured or output,
|
|
applications can request frame skipping or duplicating on the driver
|
|
side. This is especially useful when using the :ref:`read() <func-read>` or
|
|
:ref:`write() <func-write>`, which are not augmented by timestamps or sequence
|
|
counters, and to avoid unnecessary data copying.
|
|
|
|
Further these ioctls can be used to determine the number of buffers used
|
|
internally by a driver in read/write mode. For implications see the
|
|
section discussing the :ref:`read() <func-read>` function.
|
|
|
|
To get and set the streaming parameters applications call the
|
|
:ref:`VIDIOC_G_PARM <VIDIOC_G_PARM>` and :ref:`VIDIOC_S_PARM <VIDIOC_G_PARM>` ioctl, respectively. They take a
|
|
pointer to a struct :c:type:`v4l2_streamparm` which contains a
|
|
union holding separate parameters for input and output devices.

|
|
- This is the desired period between successive frames captured by

nominal frame period determined by the current video standard

the video input) may reset this parameter to the nominal frame

period. To reset manually applications can just set this field to

zero.

* - ``V4L2_MODE_HIGHQUALITY``
|
|
- 0x0001
|
|
- High quality imaging mode. High quality mode is intended for still
|
|
imaging applications. The idea is to get the best possible image
|
|
quality that the hardware can deliver. It is not defined how the
|
|
driver writer may achieve that; it will depend on the hardware and
|
|
the ingenuity of the driver writer. High quality mode is a
|
|
different mode from the regular motion video capture modes. In
|
|
high quality mode:
|
|
|
|
- The driver may be able to capture higher resolutions than for
|
|
motion capture.
|
|
|
|
- The driver may support fewer pixel formats than motion capture
|
|
(eg; true color).
|
|
|
|
- The driver may capture and arithmetically combine multiple
|
|
successive fields or frames to remove color edge artifacts and
|
|
reduce the noise in the video data.
|
|
|
|
- The driver may capture images in slices like a scanner in order
|
|
to handle larger format images than would otherwise be
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
- An image capture operation may be significantly slower than
|
|
motion capture.
|
|
|
|
- Moving objects in the image might have excessive motion blur.
|
|
|
|
- Capture might only work through the :ref:`read() <func-read>` call.

Return Value
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
|
|
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
|
|
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
