1.What is overlay?
In my V4L programing ,I read some demo programs such
as xawtv.
I find ,in xawtv's source code, the capture mode can
be divided to two kinds .One is capture ,the other is
overlay . And I also find the following in videodev.h

#define VID_TYPE_CAPTURE        1       /* Can capture */
#define VID_TYPE_OVERLAY        8       /* Overlay onto frame
buffer */
I cannot understand what is difference.

2./dev/video0 cannot be opened  multiple times
this question has been asked in another previous post
.but now I cannot get the answer .

3./dev/video0 cannot be set param mutiple times
when I open the /dev/video0 first , I can set mmap 
mode ,and set  grab size for
ioctl(..VIDIOCMCAPTURE..).
but if I want to change the grab size ,I use the same
code to set grab size for ioctl(..VIDIOCMCAPTURE..) ,I
will get erro. what lead to this ? 

can you give me some hints?
