SubjectRe: [PATCH v2 1/2] Add Documentation for Media Device, Video Device, and Synopsys DW MIPI CSI-2 Host
From

Hi Rob,

Sorry for the late reply, but I just now found your reply.

Thanks for your feedback.

I'm not sure what you mean with this, can you give me an example?

These are the outpus of the Synopsys CSI-2 Host controller, both parallel like
you said, one (IDI) formatted as the MIPI CSI-2 recommends and the other is a
video stream.

Ok. I'll remove it

It shouldn't be automatic, but Controller instead. I'll correct it.

Like I said above, IDI is formatted as recommend by the CSI-2 spec, and IPI is a
video stream, with the standard video signals.

Although you can use both outputs simultaneously, the majority of the setups
will only use one, so I'm not sure that creating graph ports for both is
necessary, but I can do it if you think it's best.

Yes, it should be camera instead

Yes, you're right, this is leftover from a previous version

This block is what interacts with the DMA and registers as a video device.

Like I said above it's not really an HW block.

You're right, I'll change it.

I'll do that.
