+
+<para>Some video capture devices can sample a subsection of a picture and
+shrink or enlarge it to an image of arbitrary size. Next, the devices can
+insert the image into larger one. Some video output devices can crop part of an
+input image, scale it up or down and insert it at an arbitrary scan line and
+horizontal offset into a video signal. We call these abilities cropping,
+scaling and composing.</para>
+
+<para>On a video <emphasis>capture</emphasis> device the source is a video
+signal, and the cropping target determine the area actually sampled. The sink
+is an image stored in a memory buffer. The composing area specifies which part
+of the buffer is actually written to by the hardware. </para>
+
+<para>On a video <emphasis>output</emphasis> device the source is an image in a
+memory buffer, and the cropping target is a part of an image to be shown on a
+display. The sink is the display or the graphics screen. The application may
+select the part of display where the image should be displayed. The size and
+position of such a window is controlled by the compose target.</para>
+
+<para>Rectangles for all cropping and composing targets are defined even if the
+device does supports neither cropping nor composing. Their size and position
+will be fixed in such a case. If the device does not support scaling then the
+cropping and composing rectangles have the same size.</para>

+
+<para>Applications can use the <link linkend="vidioc-g-selection">selection
+API</link> to select an area in a video signal or a buffer, and to query for
+default settings and hardware limits.</para>
+
+<para>Video hardware can have various cropping, composing and scaling
+limitations. It may only scale up or down, support only discrete scaling
+factors, or have different scaling abilities in the horizontal and vertical
+directions. Also it may not support scaling at all. At the same time the
+cropping/composing rectangles may have to be aligned, and both the source and
+the sink may have arbitrary upper and lower size limits. Therefore, as usual,
+drivers are expected to adjust the requested parameters and return the actual
+values selected. An application can control the rounding behaviour using <link
+linkend="v4l2-sel-flags"> constraint flags </link>.</para>
+
+ <section>
+
+ <title>Configuration of video capture</title>
+
+<para>See figure <xref linkend="sel-targets-capture" /> for examples of the
+selection targets available for a video capture device. It is recommended to
+configure the cropping targets before to the composing targets.</para>
+
+<para>The range of coordinates of the top left corner, width and height of
+areas that can be sampled is given by the <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_BOUNDS
+</constant> target. It is recommended for the driver developers to put the
+top/left corner at position <constant> (0,0) </constant>. The rectangle's
+coordinates are expressed in driver dependant units, although the coordinate
+system guarantees that if sizes of the active cropping and the active composing
+rectangles are equal then no scaling is performed. </para>
+
+<para>The top left corner, width and height of the source rectangle, that is
+the area actually sampled, is given by the <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_ACTIVE
+</constant> target. It uses the same coordinate system as <constant>
+V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_BOUNDS </constant>. The active cropping area must lie
+completely inside the capture boundaries. The driver may further adjust the
+requested size and/or position according to hardware limitations.</para>
+
+<para>Each capture device has a default source rectangle, given by the
+<constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_DEFAULT </constant> target. This rectangle shall
+over what the driver writer considers the complete picture. Drivers shall set
+the active crop rectangle to the default when the driver is first loaded, but
+not later.</para>
+
+<para>The composing targets refer to a memory buffer. The limits of composing
+coordinates are obtained using <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_BOUNDS
+</constant>. All coordinates are expressed in natural unit for given formats.
+Pixels are highly recommended. The rectangle's top/left corner must be located
+at position <constant> (0,0) </constant>. The width and height are equal to the
+image size set by <constant> VIDIOC_S_FMT </constant>.</para>
+
+<para>The part of a buffer into which the image is inserted by the hardware is
+controlled by the <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_ACTIVE </constant> target.
+The rectangle's coordinates are also expressed in the same coordinate system as
+the bounds rectangle. The composing rectangle must lie completely inside bounds
+rectangle. The driver must adjust the composing rectangle to fit to the
+bounding limits. Moreover, the driver can perform other adjustments according
+to hardware limitations. The application can control rounding behaviour using
+<link linkend="v4l2-sel-flags"> constraint flags </link>.</para>
+
+<para>For capture devices the default composing rectangle is queried using
+<constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_DEFAULT </constant>. It is usually equal to the
+bounding rectangle.</para>
+
+<para>The part of a buffer that is modified by the hardware is given by
+<constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_PADDED </constant>. It contains all pixels
+defined using <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_ACTIVE </constant> plus all
+padding data modified by hardware during insertion process. All pixels outside
+this rectangle <emphasis>must not</emphasis> be changed by the hardware. The
+content of pixels that lie inside the padded area but outside active area is
+undefined. The application can use the padded and active rectangles to detect
+where the rubbish pixels are located and remove them if needed.</para>

+
+ <title>Configuration of video output</title>
+
+<para>For output devices targets and ioctls are used similarly to the video
+capture case. The <emphasis> composing </emphasis> rectangle refers to the
+insertion of an image into a video signal. The cropping rectangles refer to a
+memory buffer. It is recommended to configure the composing targets before to
+the cropping targets.</para>
+
+<para>The cropping targets refer to the memory buffer that contains an image to
+be inserted into a video signal or graphical screen. The limits of cropping
+coordinates are obtained using <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_BOUNDS </constant>.
+All coordinates are expressed in natural units for a given format. Pixels are
+highly recommended. The top/left corner is always point <constant> (0,0)
+</constant>. The width and height is equal to the image size specified using
+<constant> VIDIOC_S_FMT </constant> ioctl.</para>
+
+<para>The top left corner, width and height of the source rectangle, that is
+the area from which image date are processed by the hardware, is given by the
+<constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_ACTIVE </constant>. Its coordinates are expressed
+in in the same coordinate system as the bounds rectangle. The active cropping
+area must lie completely inside the crop boundaries and the driver may further
+adjust the requested size and/or position according to hardware
+limitations.</para>
+
+<para>For output devices the default cropping rectangle is queried using
+<constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_DEFAULT </constant>. It is usually equal to the
+bounding rectangle.</para>
+
+<para>The part of a video signal or graphics display where the image is
+inserted by the hardware is controlled by <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_ACTIVE
+</constant> target. The rectangle's coordinates are expressed in driver
+dependant units. The only exception are digital outputs where the units are
+pixels. For other types of devices, the coordinate system guarantees that if
+sizes of the active cropping and the active composing rectangles are equal then
+no scaling is performed. The composing rectangle must lie completely inside
+the bounds rectangle. The driver must adjust the area to fit to the bounding
+limits. Moreover, the driver can perform other adjustments according to
+hardware limitations. </para>
+
+<para>The device has a default composing rectangle, given by the <constant>
+V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_DEFAULT </constant> target. This rectangle shall cover what
+the driver writer considers the complete picture. It is recommended for the
+driver developers to put the top/left corner at position <constant> (0,0)
+</constant>. Drivers shall set the active composing rectangle to the default
+one when the driver is first loaded.</para>
+
+<para>The devices may introduce additional content to video signal other than
+an image from memory buffers. It includes borders around an image. However,
+such a padded area is driver-dependent feature not covered by this document.
+Driver developers are encouraged to keep padded rectangle equal to active one.
+The padded target is accessed by the <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_PADDED
+</constant> identifier. It must contain all pixels from the <constant>
+V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_ACTIVE </constant> target.</para>

+
+ <title>Scaling control.</title>
+
+<para>An application can detect if scaling is performed by comparing the width
+and the height of rectangles obtained using <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_ACTIVE
+</constant> and <constant> V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_ACTIVE </constant> targets. If
+these are not equal then the scaling is applied. The application can compute
+the scaling ratios using these values.</para>

+
+ <title>Comparison with old cropping API.</title>
+
+<para>The selection API was introduced to cope with deficiencies of previous
+<link linkend="crop"> API </link>, that was designed to control simple capture
+devices. Later the cropping API was adopted by video output drivers. The ioctls
+are used to select a part of the display were the video signal is inserted. It
+should be considered as an API abuse because the described operation is
+actually the composing. The selection API makes a clear distinction between
+composing and cropping operations by setting the appropriate targets. The V4L2
+API lacks any support for composing to and cropping from an image inside a
+memory buffer. The application could configure a capture device to fill only a
+part of an image by abusing V4L2 API. Cropping a smaller image from a larger
+one is achieved by setting the field <structfield>
+&v4l2-pix-format;::bytesperline </structfield>. Introducing an image offsets
+could be done by modifying field <structfield> &v4l2-buffer;::m:userptr
+</structfield> before calling <constant> VIDIOC_QBUF </constant>. Those
+operations should be avoided because they are not portable (endianness), and do
+not work for macroblock and Bayer formats and mmap buffers. The selection API
+deals with configuration of buffer cropping/composing in a clear, intuitive and
+portable way. Next, with the selection API the concepts of the padded target
+and constraints flags are introduced. Finally, <structname> &v4l2-crop;
+</structname> and <structname> &v4l2-cropcap; </structname> have no reserved
+fields. Therefore there is no way to extend their functionality. The new
+<structname> &v4l2-selection; </structname> provides a lot of place for future
+extensions. Driver developers are encouraged to implement only selection API.
+The former cropping API would be simulated using the new one. </para>

+(composing) is not supported then the active rectangle is not mutable and it is
