Hi again Luis,

Regarding the output endpoint, in your example port@2, if we use the 
property snps,output-type=2 for example, so IDI output, which bus-type 
you have in mind for this link? IDI is not documented in the 
video-interfaces.txt binding.

Since the MIPI CSI-2 DPHY is actually between camera sensor and 
csi2host, after this we can use either IDI or IPI if my understanding is 
correct, and connect to a different pad/hw block which can further 
handle these packets/pixels.

I am interested on how to specify the connection type between this 
output pad and the next one (until a /dev/video can be registered by the 
last driver for the last hw block).

Thanks,

Eugen
