Sorry, my mistake. But, does it make sens that it belongs to video ops?
I think it should be part of pad ops, it is used now as alternative to
ENUMINPUT and we agreed that it should(if we are going to implement it) be
part of pad ops.

I need to know if the input signal(analog and digital) is there, before
starting streaming. I am not aware of other way to check for it.
