+ :name: VIDEO_COMMAND
+
+
+Arguments
+---------
+
+.. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 0
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - int fd
+
+ - File descriptor returned by a previous call to open().
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ - int request
+
+ - Equals VIDEO_COMMAND for this command.
+
+ - .. row 3
+
+ - struct video_command \*cmd
+
+ - Commands the decoder.
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This ioctl is obsolete. Do not use in new drivers. For V4L2 decoders
+this ioctl has been replaced by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD` ioctl.
+
+This ioctl commands the decoder. The ``video_command`` struct is a
+subset of the ``v4l2_decoder_cmd`` struct, so refer to the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD` documentation for
+more information.
+
+.. c:type:: struct video_command
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ /* The structure must be zeroed before use by the application
+ This ensures it can be extended safely in the future. */
+ struct video_command {
+ __u32 cmd;
+ __u32 flags;
+ union {
+ struct {
+ __u64 pts;
+ } stop;
+
+ struct {
+ /* 0 or 1000 specifies normal speed,
+ 1 specifies forward single stepping,
+ -1 specifies backward single stepping,
+ >1: playback at speed/1000 of the normal speed,
+ <-1: reverse playback at (-speed/1000) of the normal speed. */
+ __s32 speed;
+ __u32 format;
+ } play;
+
+ struct {
+ __u32 data[16];
+ } raw;
+ };
+ };
+
+
+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.
