HighLevel

High level interface to set specific parameters without much hassle.

These might fail if the parameter is not supported by the device and do not throw exceptions. Moreover ranges of parameter values are abstracted to lie within the intervall [0,1]. If you want to have more control, use the lower level interface described in Generic .

Detailed Description

exposes the V4L2 API to set parameters on a capture device.

It can be used in parallel to a v4lbuffer object to control and query all parameters supported. Several abstraction levels are supported. On the highest there are individual member functions for various fixed parameters. The next level supports querying and setting/getting values for all parameters supported by the driver. Finally, low-level access using V4L2 structs is supported as well.
