Hi Umang and Naush,

Thank you for the patch.

Does the ISP really support RGB or YUV input images ? Is this supported
by the driver ?

This sounds weird. Pads are not video nodes, are they ? Or are those
MMAL pads ?

Is that capture3 ?

Maybe the video nodes should be renamed to make their purpose clearer ?
