Original commit message from CVS:
Some interface implementations for video4linux/video4linux2 plugins:
* a Tuner interface, with which one can select inputs and stations. Audio
work is underway here, but unfinished.
* A Xoverlay interface with which one can do simple overlay. Similar to
the API of the v4l/Xv XFree86 extension. Widget implementation for
GTK-2.0 coming up in the sandbox.
* Colorbalance - for adapting colors (brightness, contrast, etc.) - pretty
basic and maybe somewhat overdesigned. But it'll do for now.
Apart from these interfaces, there's also a loadable library 'xwindowlistener'
that listenes to X for the movement of a window and the overlap of other
windows. This is partly copied from xawtv (and thus partly GPL :(), but it's
needed for the xoverlay interface implementation in the v4l/v4l2 elements.
Lastly, some small changes to remove redundant properties from the v4l/v4l2
elements since these can be done much simpler. Comments appreciated!
Original commit message from CVS:
This patch:
1) would provide v4l2 plugins, if only the CVS server wouldn't bork on all commits :-(. This patch will come later on in a separate commit when SF fixes her repository.
2) it fixes capsnego for all the video4linux1 plugins
3) it rewrites the debugging of all v4l1 plugins, which now make use of the standard gstreamer debugging features (gst-mask=...). This should make debugging video4linux1/gstreamer problems much easier then it used to be.

New video4linux plugins, can also handle hardware JPEG devices. First check-in, probably has lots of bugs which will be fixed when we find them
