29 File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
37 To query the capabilities of the DV receiver/transmitter applications
38 initialize the ``pad`` field to 0, zero the reserved array of struct
39 :c:type:`v4l2_dv_timings_cap` and call the
40 ``VIDIOC_DV_TIMINGS_CAP`` ioctl on a video node and the driver will fill
45 Drivers may return different values after
46 switching the video input or output.
48 When implemented by the driver DV capabilities of subdevices can be
49 queried by calling the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_DV_TIMINGS_CAP`` ioctl directly
50 on a subdevice node. The capabilities are specific to inputs (for DV
51 receivers) or outputs (for DV transmitters), applications must specify
52 the desired pad number in the struct
53 :c:type:`v4l2_dv_timings_cap` ``pad`` field and
54 zero the ``reserved`` array. Attempts to query capabilities on a pad
55 that doesn't support them will return an ``EINVAL`` error code.

69 - Minimum width of the active video in pixels.
72 - Maximum width of the active video in pixels.
75 - Minimum height of the active video in lines.
78 - Maximum height of the active video in lines.
81 - Minimum pixelclock frequency in Hz.
84 - Maximum pixelclock frequency in Hz.
87 - The video standard(s) supported by the hardware. See
88 :ref:`dv-bt-standards` for a list of standards.
91 - Several flags giving more information about the capabilities. See
92 :ref:`dv-bt-cap-capabilities` for a description of the flags.
95 - Reserved for future extensions.
96 Drivers must set the array to zero.

111 - Type of DV timings as listed in :ref:`dv-timing-types`.
114 - Pad number as reported by the media controller API. This field is
115 only used when operating on a subdevice node. When operating on a
116 video node applications must set this field to zero.
119 - Reserved for future extensions.
121 Drivers and applications must set the array to zero.

146 * - ``V4L2_DV_BT_CAP_INTERLACED``
147 - Interlaced formats are supported.
148 * - ``V4L2_DV_BT_CAP_PROGRESSIVE``
149 - Progressive formats are supported.
150 * - ``V4L2_DV_BT_CAP_REDUCED_BLANKING``
151 - CVT/GTF specific: the timings can make use of reduced blanking
152 (CVT) or the 'Secondary GTF' curve (GTF).
153 * - ``V4L2_DV_BT_CAP_CUSTOM``
154 - Can support non-standard timings, i.e. timings not belonging to
155 the standards set in the ``standards`` field.
161 On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
162 appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
163 :ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
