    V4L/DVB (13430): cx18: Fix YUV capture so that encoder passes a single frame per transfer · 22dce188
    Andy Walls authored
    Fix YUV capture such that the encoder will pass one frame per transfer.  This
    will allow the application to maintain frame alignment when a transfer from
    the encoder is missed due to high system latency in service the CX23418 IRQ.
    
    Also force YUV buffer sizes to be specified in multiples of 33.75 kB, the
    smalled amount of buffer sizes need to store a complete set of HM12 4:2:0
    macroblocks specifying 32 lines of the frame.  A full 60Hz/525 line
    screen requires 15 * 33.75 kB per frame and a full 50Hz/625 line screen
    requires 18 * 33.75 kB per frame so the default buffer size is 3 * 33.75 kB,
    requiring exactly 5 or 6 buffers per MDL respectively.  The bytes needed per
    frame and hence MDL need not be the bytes in an integer number of buffers.
    However, if frame artifacts are seen with scaled screen sizes, the YUV buffer
    size can be set 34 kB (33.75 kB) to get rid of the artifacts at the cost of more
    copies between the kernel and userspace.
