Chapter 3:

APU Software Platform

• Enumerate entities, pads, and links
• Configure sub-devices

Set media bus format

Set dimensions (width/height)

The video_lib library sets the media bus format and video resolution on each sub-device

source and sink pad for the entire media pipeline. The formats between pads that are

connected through links need to match.
