That's why I think should happen, yes. Note: interlaced formats over subdevs are rare, the use of TOP, BOTTOM and ALTERNATE is even rarer. Seeing inconsistent behavior in drivers is to be expected given how seldom it is used. And everyone I know of tries to avoid interlaced formats like the plague :-) Regards, Hans > >> Of course, at the low level the driver will have to check the 'field' >> value and program the hardware accordingly by dividing the top/height by >> two when dealing with top/bottom/alternate formats. > > thanks > Philipp >
