Correct a QVGA mode that was listed as 40 FPS. It is really 37 FPS
(half of 75 FPS).

Tests confirm that the nominal frame rates are achieved.

Joe, thanks for the patch, Antonio, thanks for testing, I've queued
this up in my gspca tree for merging into the 3.20 kernel

Regards,

Hans



Thanks Joe.

I noticed that qv4l2 displays max 60fps even though from the video I can
perceive the higher framerate, and same happens in guvcview.

gst-inspect-1.0 won't even let me set framerates higher than 75 so
I didn't test with GStreamer.

I know that the camera is also able to stream raw Bayer data which
requires less bandwidth than the default YUYV, although the driver does
not currently expose that; maybe some higher framerates can be achieved
also at VGA with Bayer output.

In case you wanted to explore that remember to set supported framerates
appropriately in ov772x_framerates for the 4 combinations of formats and
resolutions (i.e. Bayer outputs will support more framerates).

Ciao,
Antonio
