Hi All,
I’m trying to develop a UVC video grabber device, which captures interlaced
PAL video. My hardware (custom firmware on LPC3131 with a TVP5147 analog
frontend) is working to the point of streaming video but I can’t get the
computer to deinterlace the picture. The desired frame specs are a
resolution of 768x576 @ 25fps, YUY2 16Bit. The video I’m streaming currently
is each field separately, ie half frames at double the frame rate of 768x288
@ 50fps. The way I read the UVC specs this should be a supported standard
(One field per sample). 
I can’t seem to get the computer to think so however, it just shows the half
height double rate frames. Is one field per sample format supported in the
UVC driver, and if so how you to inform the driver of the format correctly. 

I’ve included my descriptors in the hope someone might see something there
that’s askew, but I feel I’ve tried a lot of different things there with no
positive results. One thing I noticed, it’s reporting 2 fields per frame in
the interlaced flags, whereas bit 1 set should read as One field per frame
according to the spec, so lsusb is reporting wrong…..  a minor bug. UVCview
in windows reports it right for what it’s worth. On the flip side, lsusb
seems to report bmVideoStandards correctly unlike UVCview, which gets those
flags offset.

I’m guessing that the interleaved line format is more common for interlaced,
but that would require full frames worth of ram in my hardware which I just
don’t have (I’ve got 96KB total ram where a half frame requires ~430KB ).

I’ve been working on this for over a week and am really at a loss, any help
would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Andrew Leech
