 *  inp_channel - On Linux defines input channel to use when communicating with
 *    the camera driver. On Windows contains an index (up to 10) of the driver
 *    to use to communicate with the camera device.
 *  pixel_format - Defines pixel format in which the client of the camera API
 *    expects the frames. Note that is this format doesn't match pixel formats
 *    supported by the camera device, the camera API will provide a conversion.
 *    If such conversion is not available, this routine will fail.
