   hverkuil: <u>pinchartl</u>: can you ack (or comment upon) Ricardo's uvc v4 patch?
   pinchartl: as soon as possible :-)
   <br> <u>mchehab</u>: I think Sakari had meetings the whole day. he might be online later
   rmelo: Hi, I am working on a driver and wondering if v4l is capable of implementing buffering schemes other than the circular buffering scheme. Has anyone thought on that yet? Kind of a triple buffering as a way to decouple the frame reader from frame writer
   larsc: <u>rmelo</u>: do you mean so the writer can overtake the reader if the reader is not fast enought?
   rmelo: <u>larsc</u>: exactly that
   <br> <u>lassc</u>: Any thoughts?
   <br> <u>larsc</u>: Nay thoughts?
   larsc: well, what v4l2 currently has is more a FIFO style approach, where new data is dropped when no space is available, whereas the other apprach is more ring-buffer like, where old data is dropped when no space is available
   <br> both have valid use cases
   <br> but I don't think there is support for the later in v4l2 atm
