58 | <para>This ioctl lets applications enumerate available frame intervals on a | ||
59 | given sub-device pad. Frame intervals only makes sense for sub-devices that | ||
60 | can control the frame period on their own. This includes, for instance, | ||
61 | image sensors and TV tuners.</para> | ||
62 | |||
63 | <para>For the common use case of image sensors, the frame intervals | ||
64 | available on the sub-device output pad depend on the frame format and size | ||
65 | on the same pad. Applications must thus specify the desired format and size | ||
66 | when enumerating frame intervals.</para> | ||
67 | |||
68 | <para>To enumerate frame intervals applications initialize the | ||
69 | <structfield>index</structfield>, <structfield>pad</structfield>, | ||
70 | <structfield>code</structfield>, <structfield>width</structfield> and | ||
71 | <structfield>height</structfield> fields of | ||
72 | &v4l2-subdev-frame-interval-enum; and call the | ||
73 | <constant>VIDIOC_SUBDEV_ENUM_FRAME_INTERVAL</constant> ioctl with a pointer | ||
74 | to this structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure or return | ||
75 | an &EINVAL; if one of the input fields is invalid. All frame intervals are | ||
76 | enumerable by beginning at index zero and incrementing by one until | ||
77 | <errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode> is returned.</para> | ||
78 | |||
79 | <para>Available frame intervals may depend on the current 'try' formats | ||
80 | at other pads of the sub-device, as well as on the current active links. See | ||
81 | &VIDIOC-SUBDEV-G-FMT; for more information about the try formats.</para> | ||
82 | |||
83 | <para>Sub-devices that support the frame interval enumeration ioctl should | ||
84 | implemented it on a single pad only. Its behaviour when supported on | ||
85 | multiple pads of the same sub-device is not defined.</para> | ||
