Handling decompression?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I have a quickcam web. There is a simple driver and program for it that
can decompress images and serve them at 15fps (I have a Pentium 166)  
through the v4l loopback.

How is this normally handled? I don't think we want a mjpeg decoder in the
kernel... 

Would this be the right sequence?
 User opens device
  Driver does initializations and starts up decompression program.
 User does a read
  Driver gets data1 from device
  Driver sends data1 to decompression program
  Decompression program sends data2 to driver
  Driver sends data2 to user.
