[Microdia] Re: gentoo ebuild

[GWater]

I agree with the changes. But please fix the style stuff (whitespaces, 80 characters, ...)

So the flip_detection is currently not working for two reasons:
1. We need a stored parameter for opt-in (most cams don't need it).
2. Every cam that needs flip_detection must have hvflip support.
   Since we have no decoders in the driver we can only do that in the
   hardware.

to 1. The kernel-module paramter actually already exists. It just isn't stored anywhere. And quite frankly I can't think of a decent place for it. to 2. I think that's already there for the concerned cams. Just checking required.

And again my patches.
Now without fake hardware auto-exposure for ov9650 sensors.
And partly nicer commit messages.

software auto-exposure can only be realised for ov965x anyway. Most

I disagree about libv4l. userspace does not have access to the device.
But that is vital for Vasily's patches.

Remember that Vasily's patches don't manipulate the image stream we get
from the device - they rather make the device give us a brighter or
darker image stream.

What about ov76xx sensors? They have YAVG register too

Here's some patches from my side :)



0010 - Use sn9c20x_write_i2c_data_ext in ov_set_exposure
0011 - Some fixes mentioned before :)

0009 - I've added one parameter to the sn9c20x_write_i2c_data function, because I need to specify last byte of i2c-write sequence. It should be set to 0x1e in changing exposure value sequence. Without it I have image freezes during exposure decres
