In practice, I have the impression there is a fair reason why framerate
enumeration isn't implemented (considering there is only 1 valid rate).
Along with the norm fallback, GStreamer could could also consider the
currently set framerate as returned byÂVIDIOC_G_PARM. At the same time,
implementing that enumeration shall be straightforward, and will make a
large amount of existing userspace work.
