Description
To query the attributes of a video outputs applications
initialize the index field of &v4l2-output;
and call the VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT ioctl with a
pointer to this structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure or
return an &EINVAL; when the index is out of bounds. To enumerate all
outputs applications shall begin at index zero, incrementing by one
until the driver returns EINVAL.
struct v4l2_output
&cs-str;
__u32
index
Identifies the output, set by the
application.
__u8
name[32]
Name of the video output, a NUL-terminated ASCII
string, for example: "Vout". This information is intended for the
user, preferably the connector label on the device itself.
__u32
type
Type of the output, see .
__u32
audioset
Drivers can enumerate up to 32 video and
audio outputs. This field shows which audio outputs were
selectable as the current output if this was the currently selected
video output. It is a bit mask. The LSB corresponds to audio output 0,
the MSB to output 31. Any number of bits can be set, or
none.When the driver does not enumerate audio outputs no
bits must be set. Applications shall not interpret this as lack of
audio support. Drivers may automatically select audio outputs without
enumerating them.For details on audio outputs and how to
select the current output see .
__u32
modulator
Output devices can have zero or more RF modulators.
When the type is
V4L2_OUTPUT_TYPE_MODULATOR this is an RF
connector and this field identifies the modulator. It corresponds to
&v4l2-modulator; field index. For details
on modulators see .
&v4l2-std-id;
std
Every video output supports one or more different
video standards. This field is a set of all supported standards. For
details on video standards and how to switch see .
__u32
capabilities
This field provides capabilities for the
output. See for flags.
__u32
reserved[3]
Reserved for future extensions. Drivers must set
the array to zero.
Output Type
&cs-def;
V4L2_OUTPUT_TYPE_MODULATOR
1
This output is an analog TV modulator.
V4L2_OUTPUT_TYPE_ANALOG
2
Analog baseband output, for example Composite /
CVBS, S-Video, RGB.
V4L2_OUTPUT_TYPE_ANALOGVGAOVERLAY
3
[?]
Output capabilities
&cs-def;
V4L2_OUT_CAP_DV_TIMINGS
0x00000002
This output supports setting video timings by using VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS.
V4L2_OUT_CAP_STD
0x00000004
This output supports setting the TV standard by using VIDIOC_S_STD.
&return-value;
EINVAL
The &v4l2-output; index
is out of bounds.
