Hi again, I'm currently writing a tool to store video-settings in an XML-file (for setting controls on a per-channel basis and for storing encoding-profiles). Now I have a problem to uniquely identify a device. I first wanted to use the bus-info to associate a particular device with a profile (for the case of multiple identical devices connected to a system). But this changes on reconnect.
If I first print out the bus-info it reports something like "usb 7-2 address 7". If I then dis- and reconnect the device while it is under operation (streaming to VLC), it creates a new device-node (/dev/video1 here, exactly what it should do) but reports a bus-info "usb 7-2 address 8" and the profile can't be associated to that device. How can I read the serial-number which is used by the sysfs-interface through the V4L2-API? Sorry for keeping you busy with my questions... Thanks a lot.
