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:
v4l plugins:
* add open/close signals
v4l2 plugins:
* add open/close signals
* move source format enumeration from v4l2element to v4l2src
* adapt to the final v4l2 API in kernel 2.5 (patches for 2.4 on http://bytesex.org/patches)
* small tweaks
Original commit message from CVS:
this adds video4linux2 source and element plugins. The division in v4l2* plugins is the same as for v4l1 - i.e. an element, a src and a sink, but there won't be separate encoding plugins (like v4lmjpegsrc) - all functionality is (thanks to video4linux2) integrated in one plugin: v4l2src. v4l2sink is still to be done, that'll come later.
