NAME

qv4l2 - A test bench application for video4linux devices

SYNOPSIS

qv4l2 [-R] [-h] [-d <dev>] [-r <dev>] [-V <dev>] [-S <dev>]

DESCRIPTION

The qv4l2 tool is used to test video4linux capture and output devices, either video, vbi, radio or swradio. This application can also serve as a generic video/TV viewer application or as a video generator for video output devices.

However, it does not (yet) support compressed video streams other than MJPEG
