Hi All,
I'm very happy to announce the release of libv4l-0.6.3
The main change this release is support for decompression of w9968cf
JPEG and stv0680 raw bayer formats, together with the new gspca
support for these bridges, this will allow us to retire the w9968cf
and stv680 v4l1 drivers.
This release also adds 4 new laptops in the list of laptops
whose camera modules are known to be mounted upside down in
the frame. So it looks like the rate of adding new upside down cams
is slowing somewhat, which is good.
libv4l-0.6.3
-------------
* Add more laptop models to the upside down devices table
* Improved mr97310a decompression
* Add support for decompressing yuv420 planar JPEG (one component per SOS,
3 SOS per frame), this is needed for w9968cf based cams
* Add support for STV0680 raw bayer data
