- <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>
