+VIDIOC_DV_TIMINGS_CAP - VIDIOC_SUBDEV_DV_TIMINGS_CAP - The capabilities of the Digital Video receiver/transmitter
+
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct v4l2_dv_timings_cap *argp )
+
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``request``
+ VIDIOC_DV_TIMINGS_CAP, VIDIOC_SUBDEV_DV_TIMINGS_CAP
+
+``argp``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+To query the capabilities of the DV receiver/transmitter applications
+initialize the ``pad`` field to 0, zero the reserved array of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_dv_timings_cap <v4l2-dv-timings-cap>` and call the
+``VIDIOC_DV_TIMINGS_CAP`` ioctl on a video node and the driver will fill
+in the structure.
+
+.. note:: Drivers may return different values after
+ switching the video input or output.
+
+When implemented by the driver DV capabilities of subdevices can be
+queried by calling the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_DV_TIMINGS_CAP`` ioctl directly
+on a subdevice node. The capabilities are specific to inputs (for DV
+receivers) or outputs (for DV transmitters), applications must specify
+the desired pad number in the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_dv_timings_cap <v4l2-dv-timings-cap>` ``pad`` field and
+zero the ``reserved`` array. Attempts to query capabilities on a pad
+that doesn't support them will return an ``EINVAL`` error code.
