+VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX - Get meta data about a compressed video stream
+
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX, struct v4l2_enc_idx *argp )
+    :name: VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX
+
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+    File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``argp``
+    Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_enc_idx`.
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The :ref:`VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX <VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX>` ioctl provides meta data about a compressed
+video stream the same or another application currently reads from the
+driver, which is useful for random access into the stream without
+decoding it.
+
+To read the data applications must call :ref:`VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX <VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX>` with a
+pointer to a struct :c:type:`v4l2_enc_idx`. On success
+the driver fills the ``entry`` array, stores the number of elements
+written in the ``entries`` field, and initializes the ``entries_cap``
+field.
+
+Each element of the ``entry`` array contains meta data about one
+picture. A :ref:`VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX <VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX>` call reads up to
+``V4L2_ENC_IDX_ENTRIES`` entries from a driver buffer, which can hold up
+to ``entries_cap`` entries. This number can be lower or higher than
+``V4L2_ENC_IDX_ENTRIES``, but not zero. When the application fails to
+read the meta data in time the oldest entries will be lost. When the
+buffer is empty or no capturing/encoding is in progress, ``entries``
+will be zero.
+
+Currently this ioctl is only defined for MPEG-2 program streams and
+video elementary streams.
