Hi Laurent,
Thanks for your comments.
Apart from the issue with the input API Hans pointed which indicates I
need to keep that around until it's fixed in the framework I agree with
all your comments but one.

This can't be a cached value it needs to be read at stream on time. The
input source could have changed format, e.g. the user may have
disconnected a NTSC source and plugged in a PAL.
This is a shame as I otherwise agree with you that interactions with the
subdevice should be kept at a minimum.
