-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-0715 2010-01-19 00:31:39 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : libv4l Product : Fedora 12 Version : 0.6.4 Release : 1.fc12 URL : http://hansdegoede.livejournal.com/3636.html Summary : Collection of video4linux support libraries Description : libv4l is a collection of libraries which adds a thin abstraction layer on top of video4linux2 devices. The purpose of this (thin) layer is to make it easy for application writers to support a wide variety of devices without having to write separate code for different devices in the same class. libv4l consists of 3 different libraries: libv4lconvert, libv4l1 and libv4l2. libv4lconvert offers functions to convert from any (known) pixelformat to V4l2_PIX_FMT_BGR24 or V4l2_PIX_FMT_YUV420. libv4l1 offers the (deprecated) v4l1 API on top of v4l2 devices, independent of the drivers for those devices supporting v4l1 compatibility (which many v4l2 drivers do not). libv4l2 offers the v4l2 API on top of v4l2 devices, while adding for the application transparent libv4lconvert conversion where necessary. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: The main change this release is support for decompression of cpia1 "compressed" yuv, together with the new gspca support for these bridges, this will allow us to retire the cpia1 v4l1 driver. This release also adds a large number of laptops to the list of laptops whose camera modules are known to be mounted upside down in the frame. Last are some improvements to mr97310a support. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Sun Jan 17 2010 Hans de Goede <[email protected]> 0.6.4-1 - New upstream release 0.6.4 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
