ioctl VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP
*****************************

Name
====

VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP - Query sliced VBI capabilities


Synopsis
========

.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP, struct v4l2_sliced_vbi_cap *argp )
    :name: VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP


Arguments
=========

``fd``
    File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.

``argp``


Description
===========

To find out which data services are supported by a sliced VBI capture or
output device, applications initialize the ``type`` field of a struct
:ref:`v4l2_sliced_vbi_cap <v4l2-sliced-vbi-cap>`, clear the
``reserved`` array and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP <VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP>` ioctl. The
driver fills in the remaining fields or returns an ``EINVAL`` error code if
the sliced VBI API is unsupported or ``type`` is invalid.

.. note::

   The ``type`` field was added, and the ioctl changed from read-only
   to write-read, in Linux 2.6.19.

       -  :cspan:`2` The number of VBI lines the hardware can capture or

	  given line may be limited. For example on PAL line 16 the hardware
	  may be able to look for a VPS or Teletext signal, but not both at
	  the same time. Applications can learn about these limits using the
	  :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <VIDIOC_G_FMT>` ioctl as described in

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.

EINVAL
    The value in the ``type`` field is wrong.
