Subject: RFC: adding a flag to indicate a webcam sensor is installed upside down
Date: Thu, 07 Aug 2008 12:36:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <489AD045.7030404@hhs.nl> (raw)

Hi all,

I have this Philips SPC 200NC webcam, which has its sensor installed upside 
down and the sensor does not seem to support flipping the image. So I believe 
the windows drivers fix this little problem in software.

I would like to add a flag somewhere to indicate this to userspace (and then 
add flipping code to libv4l).

I think the best place for this would the flags field of the v4l2_fmtdesc 
struct. Any other ideas / objections to this?

Regards,

Hans
