Just a random thought, but maybe the pac207 driver can benefit from such a change as well?

It could, but it is to late for that, the pac207 driver and corresponding libv4l functionality has been out there for 2 kernel releases now, so we cannot change that.

Pretty much what I said. It would have been better so, but done is done.


Which also makes me wonder about the same change for the mr97310a, is that cam already
supported in a released kernel ?

Someone else may know better than I do, but since it was only added quite recently, surely not?


If not we MUST make sure we get this change in before 2.6.29 final, if it is I'm afraid we cannot make these changes. In that case if we ever need to header data we need to define a new PIXFMT for mr97310a with the header data, and deprecate the old one.

I do not quite understand. Why not just do it right away. especially if this has not appeared yet in any kernel?
