+ <para>To query the current video input applications call the
+<constant>VIDIOC_G_INPUT</constant> ioctl with a pointer to an integer
+where the driver stores the number of the input, as in the
+&v4l2-input; <structfield>index</structfield> field. This ioctl will
+fail only when there are no video inputs, returning
+<errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode>.</para>
+
+ <para>To select a video input applications store the number of the
+desired input in an integer and call the
+<constant>VIDIOC_S_INPUT</constant> 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. It is good practice to select an input before
+querying or negotiating any other parameters.</para>
