70 | What: Video4Linux API 1 ioctls and video_decoder.h from Video devices. | ||
71 | When: July 2006 | ||
72 | Why: V4L1 AP1 was replaced by V4L2 API. during migration from 2.4 to 2.6 | ||
73 | series. The old API have lots of drawbacks and don't provide enough | ||
74 | means to work with all video and audio standards. The newer API is | ||
75 | already available on the main drivers and should be used instead. | ||
76 | Newer drivers should use v4l_compat_translate_ioctl function to handle | ||
77 | old calls, replacing to newer ones. | ||
78 | Decoder iocts are using internally to allow video drivers to | ||
79 | communicate with video decoders. This should also be improved to allow | ||
80 | V4L2 calls being translated into compatible internal ioctls. | ||
