Hello All: I have a question about the v4l2 API. I am using a BT878 based MiniPCI card. I have able to successfully acquire video frames by passing the proper structures via ioctrl calls and reading the /dev/video0 device. I need a method that is faster (I can only get about 10frames per second with reads to /dev/video) so I wish to use the user pointer streaming method. Here is my question: After I request the user pointer buffer method, enqueue a 'user pointer' and pass the IOSTREAMON command, how to how when the driver has filled my buffer? Right now the way I am testing everything is by reading in raw image data and then creating a jpeg file with libjpeg. I am always successfull with /dev/video reads but get black images with user pointer streams. What is the proper procodure for enqueuing 1 user buffer, starting the stream and waiting for the buffer to become filled?

Maybe some help can do the difference ? I'm not a Linux driver developper,
so I have to leave this to experienced people, but I may try and find some
mising information: Do you know what information on the chips are needed
exactly ?
