I thought you wanted to avoid having to define V4L2_PIX_FMT_x for an exploding number of proprietary formats that are quite similar but still incompatible. It makes sense for formats that are used by more than one driver. > I don't see how separate RAW ioctl's will add value to the V4l2 API, > it fits into the current API. Yes, it does. Each driver having multiple raw formats just needs a private control id to select one.
