Synopsis
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
.. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, int *argp )
|
|
|
|
|
|
Arguments
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
``fd``
|
|
File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
|
|
|
|
``request``
|
|
VIDIOC_G_INPUT, VIDIOC_S_INPUT
|
|
|
|
``argp``
|
|
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
To query the current video input applications call the
|
|
:ref:`VIDIOC_G_INPUT <VIDIOC_G_INPUT>` ioctl with a pointer to an integer where the driver
|
|
stores the number of the input, as in the struct
|
|
:ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` ``index`` field. This ioctl will fail
|
|
only when there are no video inputs, returning ``EINVAL``.
|
|
|
|
To select a video input applications store the number of the desired
|
|
input in an integer and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_INPUT <VIDIOC_G_INPUT>` ioctl with a pointer
|
|
to this integer. Side effects are possible. For example inputs may
|
|
support different video standards, so the driver may implicitly switch
|
|
the current standard. Because of these possible side effects
|
|
applications must select an input before querying or negotiating any
|
|
other parameters.
|
|
|
|
Information about video inputs is available using the
|
|
:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT` ioctl.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Return Value
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
|
|
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
|
|
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
|
|
|
|
EINVAL
|
|
The number of the video input is out of bounds.
