I'm still doing my driver development mainly with 2.2 since 2.4 isn't working well. Besides, V4L2 isn't solving the format problem. Yeah, maybe there is a type for JPEG unlike in V4L1, but there will always be custom formats which will not be supported in V4L2 API (officially) and thus it won't make much more sense for applications to use V4L2 API than V4L1, since it won't be solving the problem with formats ultimately anyway (assuming no format conversions in the kernel). Gstreamer might solve, when it is a standard component in all distributions. I hope that will happen soon. -- video4linux-list mailing list Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
