2.18. V4L2 DV Timings functions¶
-
struct v4l2_fract v4l2_calc_timeperframe(const struct v4l2_dv_timings *t)¶

Returns true if the two timings match, returns false otherwise.
-
void v4l2_print_dv_timings(const char *dev_prefix, const char *prefix, const struct v4l2_dv_timings *t, bool detailed)¶
log the contents of a dv_timings struct
Parameters
const char *dev_prefix
device prefix for each log line.
const char *prefix
additional prefix for each log line, may be NULL.
const struct v4l2_dv_timings *t

-
bool v4l2_detect_cvt(unsigned frame_height, unsigned hfreq, unsigned vsync, unsigned active_width, u32 polarities, bool interlaced, struct v4l2_dv_timings *fmt)¶
detect if the given timings follow the CVT standard
Parameters
unsigned frame_height
the total height of the frame (including blanking) in lines.
unsigned hfreq
the horizontal frequency in Hz.
unsigned vsync
the height of the vertical sync in lines.
unsigned active_width
active width of image (does not include blanking). This information is needed only in case of version 2 of reduced blanking. In other cases, this parameter does not have any effect on timings.
u32 polarities
the horizontal and vertical polarities (same as struct v4l2_bt_timings polarities).
bool interlaced
if this flag is true, it indicates interlaced format
struct v4l2_dv_timings *fmt
the resulting timings.
Description
This function will attempt to detect if the given values correspond to a valid CVT format. If so, then it will return true, and fmt will be filled in with the found CVT timings.
-
bool v4l2_detect_gtf(unsigned frame_height, unsigned hfreq, unsigned vsync, u32 polarities, bool interlaced, struct v4l2_fract aspect, struct v4l2_dv_timings *fmt)¶
detect if the given timings follow the GTF standard
Parameters
unsigned frame_height
the total height of the frame (including blanking) in lines.
unsigned hfreq
the horizontal frequency in Hz.
unsigned vsync
the height of the vertical sync in lines.
u32 polarities
the horizontal and vertical polarities (same as struct v4l2_bt_timings polarities).
bool interlaced
if this flag is true, it indicates interlaced format
struct v4l2_fract aspect
preferred aspect ratio. GTF has no method of determining the aspect ratio in order to derive the image width from the image height, so it has to be passed explicitly. Usually the native screen aspect ratio is used for this. If it is not filled in correctly, then 16:9 will be assumed.
struct v4l2_dv_timings *fmt
the resulting timings.
Description
This function will attempt to detect if the given values correspond to a valid GTF format. If so, then it will return true, and fmt will be filled in with the found GTF timings.
-
struct v4l2_fract v4l2_calc_aspect_ratio(u8 hor_landscape, u8 vert_portrait)¶
calculate the aspect ratio based on bytes 0x15 and 0x16 from the EDID.
Parameters
u8 hor_landscape
byte 0x15 from the EDID.
u8 vert_portrait
byte 0x16 from the EDID.
Description
Determines the aspect ratio from the EDID. See VESA Enhanced EDID standard, release A, rev 2, section 3.6.2: "Horizontal and Vertical Screen Size or Aspect Ratio"
-
struct v4l2_fract v4l2_dv_timings_aspect_ratio(const struct v4l2_dv_timings *t)¶
calculate the aspect ratio based on the v4l2_dv_timings information.
Parameters
const struct v4l2_dv_timings *t
the timings data.
-
bool can_reduce_fps(struct v4l2_bt_timings *bt)¶
check if conditions for reduced fps are true.
Parameters
struct v4l2_bt_timings *bt
v4l2 timing structure
Description
For different timings reduced fps is allowed if the following conditions are met:
For CVT timings: if reduced blanking v2 (vsync == 8) is true.
For CEA861 timings: if
V4L2_DV_FL_CAN_REDUCE_FPS
flag is true.
