********************************
Name
====
VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMEINTERVALS - Enumerate frame intervals
Synopsis
========
.. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct v4l2_frmivalenum *argp )
Arguments
=========
``fd``
File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
``request``
VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMEINTERVALS
``argp``
Pointer to a struct :ref:`v4l2_frmivalenum <v4l2-frmivalenum>`
structure that contains a pixel format and size and receives a frame
interval.
Description
===========
This ioctl allows applications to enumerate all frame intervals that the
device supports for the given pixel format and frame size.
The supported pixel formats and frame sizes can be obtained by using the
:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT` and
:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMESIZES` functions.
The return value and the content of the ``v4l2_frmivalenum.type`` field
depend on the type of frame intervals the device supports. Here are the
semantics of the function for the different cases:
- **Discrete:** The function returns success if the given index value
(zero-based) is valid. The application should increase the index by
one for each call until ``EINVAL`` is returned. The
`v4l2_frmivalenum.type` field is set to
`V4L2_FRMIVAL_TYPE_DISCRETE` by the driver. Of the union only
the `discrete` member is valid.
- **Step-wise:** The function returns success if the given index value
is zero and ``EINVAL`` for any other index value. The
``v4l2_frmivalenum.type`` field is set to
``V4L2_FRMIVAL_TYPE_STEPWISE`` by the driver. Of the union only the
``stepwise`` member is valid.
- **Continuous:** This is a special case of the step-wise type above.
The function returns success if the given index value is zero and
``EINVAL`` for any other index value. The ``v4l2_frmivalenum.type``
field is set to ``V4L2_FRMIVAL_TYPE_CONTINUOUS`` by the driver. Of
the union only the ``stepwise`` member is valid and the ``step``
value is set to 1.
When the application calls the function with index zero, it must check
the ``type`` field to determine the type of frame interval enumeration
the device supports. Only for the ``V4L2_FRMIVAL_TYPE_DISCRETE`` type
does it make sense to increase the index value to receive more frame
intervals.
Note that the order in which the frame intervals are returned has no
special meaning. In particular does it not say anything about potential
default frame intervals.
Applications can assume that the enumeration data does not change
without any interaction from the application itself. This means that the
enumeration data is consistent if the application does not perform any
other ioctl calls while it runs the frame interval enumeration.
Notes
=====
- **Frame intervals and frame rates:** The V4L2 API uses frame
intervals instead of frame rates. Given the frame interval the frame
rate can be computed as follows:
::
frame_rate = 1 / frame_interval
Structs
=======
In the structs below, *IN* denotes a value that has to be filled in by
the application, *OUT* denotes values that the driver fills in. The
application should zero out all members except for the *IN* fields.
