In that case the application may +depend on a codec to convert images to one of the standard formats +when needed. But the data can still be stored and retrieved in the +proprietary format. For example, a device may support a proprietary +compressed format. Applications can still capture and save the data in +the compressed format, saving much disk space, and later use a codec +to convert the images to the X Windows screen format when the video is +to be displayed.</para> + + <para>Even so, ultimately, some standard formats are needed, so +the V4L2 specification would not be complete without well-defined +standard formats.</para> + + <para>The V4L2 standard formats are mainly uncompressed formats. The +pixels are always arranged in memory from left to right, and from top +to bottom. The first byte of data in the image buffer is always for +the leftmost pixel of the topmost row. Following that is the pixel +immediately to its right, and so on until the end of the top row of +pixels. Following the rightmost pixel of the row there may be zero or +more bytes of padding to guarantee that each row of pixel data has a +certain alignment. Following the pad bytes, if any, is data for the +leftmost pixel of the second row from the top, and so on. The last row +has just as many pad bytes after it as the other rows.</para> + + <para>In V4L2 each format has an identifier which looks like +<constant>PIX_FMT_XXX</constant>, defined in the <link +linkend="videodev">videodev.h</link> header file.

To add color in a way compatible with existing +receivers a new signal carrier was added to transmit the color +difference signals. Secondary in the YUV format the U and V components +usually have lower resolution than the Y component. This is an analog +video compression technique taking advantage of a property of the +human visual system, being more sensitive to brightness +information.</para> + + &sub-packed-yuv; + &sub-grey; + &sub-y16; + &sub-yuyv; + &sub-uyvy; + &sub-yvyu; + &sub-vyuy; + &sub-y41p; + &sub-yuv420; + &sub-yuv410; + &sub-yuv422p; + &sub-yuv411p; + &sub-nv12; + &sub-nv16; + </section> + + <section> + <title>Compressed Formats</title> + + <table pgwide="1" frame="none" id="compressed-formats"> + <title>Compressed Image Formats</title> + <tgroup cols="3" align="left"> + &cs-def; + <thead> + <row> + <entry>Identifier</entry> + <entry>Code</entry> + <entry>Details</entry> + </row> + </thead> + <tbody valign="top"> + <row id="V4L2-PIX-FMT-JPEG"> + <entry><constant>V4L2_PIX_FMT_JPEG</constant></entry> + <entry>'JPEG'</entry> + <entry>TBD.
