But if you look at CT_AE_MODE_CONTROL,

"A GET_RES request issued to this control will return a bitmap of the
modes supported by this control. A valid request to this control would
have only one bit set (a single mode selected)."

GET_MIN and GET_MAX are not listed as supported.

Maybe we need two types of UVC bitmap controls ? :-(
