Hi,


Thanks for the reply. 



In board, HDMI connectors are there. If we did not add this ctrl in driver, 
what will happen to the functionality?

If we did not add this ctrl, then whether this affect the video streaming 
functionality or not?



What scenario, we need to add this ctrl?



Thanks for the inputs.



Thanks & Regards

When you're doing the same thing as the reference drivers, use the standard 
control. 

 

If you're doing something strange and different from the reference drivers, ask 
yourself 

why you're doing it, and whether doing the same thing as the reference drivers 
wouldn't 

be a better idea. 

 

In this specific case, RX_POWER_PRESENT sounds like a pretty common thing to 

be able to sense. So if that's what you're doing, use that control. If your 
sensor 

can't detect RX_POWER_PRESENT, complain to your hardware design team. :)
