<title>Description</title>
<para>Applications use this function to query the cropping
limits, the pixel aspect of images and to calculate scale factors.
They set the <structfield>type</structfield> field of a v4l2_cropcap
structure to the respective buffer (stream) type and call the
<constant>VIDIOC_CROPCAP</constant> ioctl with a pointer to this
structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure. The results are
constant except when switching the video standard. Remember this
switch can occur implicit when switching the video input or
output.</para>

640 × 480 rectangle for NTSC, a
768 × 576 rectangle for PAL and SECAM centered over
the active picture area. The same co-ordinate system as for
<structfield>bounds</structfield> is used.</entry>

pixels.</para><para>When cropping coordinates refer to square pixels,
the driver sets <structfield>pixelaspect</structfield> to 1/1. Other
common values are 54/59 for PAL and SECAM, 11/10 for NTSC sampled
