Any update here or on the other patch? We are quite close to working
camera now...

Plus I have played with v4l-utils, and managed to implement autofocus
and autoexposure -- it was easier than expected. I believe you
mentioned you had some patches to automatically initialize the
pipeline. Do you and can I have them?

Last thing.. Is someone able to compute new modes for et8ek8? I
believe smaller than 640x480 mode would be useful for video streaming,
and I still can't get 5MPix mode to work; understanding what goes on
there would be useful.

Thanks,
									Pavel

Oh and.. is it possible to generate modes with more than 30fps? I
guess that would be useful for initial autofocus/autogain....

I've been working on PLL test cases. The PLL calculator really requires that
to be able to test any changes made to it.

It was an early prototype and it wasn't really functional yet.

Given a video node, it can find possible pipelines to the image sources with
common formats. I.e. the ccdc -> rsz path is not available for raw cameras.

C (especially without helper libraries) wasn't particularly suitable for the
task, the data structures I had didn't end up too nice. What would also be
necessary is to associate library or application specific data to entities,
this could be as simple as key-value pairs with both key and value being
pointers.

Unfortunately the et8ek8 does not conform to a standard such as SMIA. :-(
I'm not sure the datasheet provides enough information to come up with new
mode definitions. Perhaps with some experimentation it could be possible.
There are a few additional embedded documents in it, those are worth
checking out. LibreOffice can open them AFAIR.

Could I get a copy, anyway? Need not be perfect, but starting point
would be welcome.
