358c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciDescription
368c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci===========
378c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
388c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciThe hardware may be able to detect the current video standard
398c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciautomatically. To do so, applications call :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYSTD` with a
408c2ecf20Sopenharmony_cipointer to a :ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>` type. The driver
418c2ecf20Sopenharmony_cistores here a set of candidates, this can be a single flag or a set of
428c2ecf20Sopenharmony_cisupported standards if for example the hardware can only distinguish
438c2ecf20Sopenharmony_cibetween 50 and 60 Hz systems. If no signal was detected, then the driver
448c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciwill return V4L2_STD_UNKNOWN. When detection is not possible or fails,
458c2ecf20Sopenharmony_cithe set must contain all standards supported by the current video input
468c2ecf20Sopenharmony_cior output.
478c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
488c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci.. note::
498c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci
508c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   Drivers shall *not* switch the video standard
518c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   automatically if a new video standard is detected. Instead, drivers
528c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   should send the ``V4L2_EVENT_SOURCE_CHANGE`` event (if they support
538c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   this) and expect that userspace will take action by calling
548c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYSTD`. The reason is that a new video standard can mean
558c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   different buffer sizes as well, and you cannot change buffer sizes on
568c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   the fly. In general, applications that receive the Source Change event
578c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   will have to call :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYSTD`, and if the detected video
588c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   standard is valid they will have to stop streaming, set the new
598c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci   standard, allocate new buffers and start streaming again.
