Description
-----------
This ioctl is for Digital TV devices only. This ioctl was also supported by the
V4L2 ivtv driver, but that has been replaced by the ivtv-specific
``IVTV_IOC_PASSTHROUGH_MODE`` ioctl.
This ioctl call informs the video device which source shall be used for
the input data. The possible sources are demux or memory. If memory is
selected, the data is fed to the video device through the write command.
.. c:type:: video_stream_source_t
.. code-block:: c
typedef enum {
VIDEO_SOURCE_DEMUX, /* Select the demux as the main source */
VIDEO_SOURCE_MEMORY /* If this source is selected, the stream
comes from the user through the write
system call */
} video_stream_source_t;
Return Value
------------
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
