Description Nicolas Dufresne (ndufresne) 2014-05-05 18:14:01 UTC 
v4l2videodec is entirely based on helpers and ends up with a lot of meaningless properties. Before 1.4, I want to remove all properties that make no sense and only keep the strict minimum.

I will also name the device a read-only proper (as it's a multi-instance element, hence changing the device makes no sense) and some other changes on properties, like having capture-io-mode and output-io-mode, rather then confusing capture-io-mode and io-mode.

    v4l2: Cleanup M2M properties
    
    M2M devices were sharing the same properties as src and sink. Most of
    these made no sense. This patch reduces the number of propeties and
    makes io-mode clearer by having capture-io-mode and output-io-mode. This
    also accidently fixed a bug in gstv4l2transform io-mode code, where the
    capture io-mode could not be set.
