Name
====
VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP - Query sliced VBI capabilities
Synopsis
========
.. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct v4l2_sliced_vbi_cap *argp )
Arguments
=========
``fd``
File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
``request``
VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP
``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.

- .. row 1
- __u16
- ``service_set``
- :cspan:`2` A set of all data services supported by the driver.
Equal to the union of all elements of the ``service_lines`` array.
- .. row 2
- __u16
- ``service_lines``\ [2][24]
- :cspan:`2` Each element of this array contains a set of data
services the hardware can look for or insert into a particular
scan line. Data services are defined in :ref:`vbi-services`.
Array indices map to ITU-R line numbers (see also :ref:`vbi-525`
and :ref:`vbi-625`) as follows:

-
- :cspan:`2` The number of VBI lines the hardware can capture or
output per frame, or the number of services it can identify on a
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
:ref:`sliced`.

- :cspan:`2` Drivers must set ``service_lines`` [0][0] and
``service_lines``\ [1][0] to zero.
- .. row 12
- __u32
- ``type``
- Type of the data stream, see :ref:`v4l2-buf-type`. Should be
``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SLICED_VBI_CAPTURE`` or
``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SLICED_VBI_OUTPUT``.
- .. row 13
- __u32
- ``reserved``\ [3]
- :cspan:`2` This array is reserved for future extensions.
Applications and drivers must set it to zero.

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.
