5 Common selection definitions
6 ============================
8 While the :ref:`V4L2 selection API <selection-api>` and
9 :ref:`V4L2 subdev selection APIs <v4l2-subdev-selections>` are very
10 similar, there's one fundamental difference between the two. On
11 sub-device API, the selection rectangle refers to the media bus format,
12 and is bound to a sub-device's pad. On the V4L2 interface the selection
13 rectangles refer to the in-memory pixel format.
