We might be able to switch drive mode with UI properties - once/if the necessary research is done.
That would be useful in a lots of other situations too.
I did not try, but I think the current approach of suppressing JPEG may fail to work in continuous mode for multipass cams. So, IMHO all targets should fail.
Yeah, makes sense.
The code could be reorganized by moving the "possibilities" check from the beginning of remotecap_set_target() to remotecap_get_target_support() and making the latter function accept a parameter. remotecap_get_target_support() could then be used for querying both "what does the cam support" and "what does the cam support right now".
Hmm. That could work. Somewhat tempting just stick with your original patch to keep it simple, but allowing the client to distinguish between not implemented and something that just needs a mode change would be more user friendly. The Lua function could just return both bitmasks, like
available, supported = get_usb_capture_support()
remotecap_set_target() should still do all the checks anyway (because you don't know if the client checked or what changed in between), but it could just call the "what does the cam support right now" variant.
