Subject: How to set pixelaspect in struct v4l2_cropcap returned by VIDIOC_CROPCAP?
Date: Sun, 16 Sep 2012 18:32:52 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5055F124.8020507@unixsol.org> (raw)

Guys I'm adding v4l2 output device support for VLC/ffmpeg/libav (I'm using
v4l2loopback [1] driver for testing) but I have a problem which I can't seem
to find a solution.

VLC [2] uses VIDIOC_CROPCAP [3] to detect the pixelaspect ratio of the input
it receives from v4l2 device. But I can't seem to find a way to set struct
v4l2_cropcap.pixelaspect when I'm outputting data to the device and the
result is that VLC assumes pixelaspect is 1:1.

I was hoping that VIDIOC_S_CROP [4] would allow setting pixelaspect but
according to docs that is not case. What am I missing?

How to set pixelaspect values returned by VIDIOC_CROPCAP?
