With this ioctl +applications can enumerate a list of known supported timings. Call +:ref:`VIDIOC_DV_TIMINGS_CAP` to check if it +also supports other standards or even custom timings that are not in +this list. + +To query the available timings, applications initialize the ``index`` +field, set the ``pad`` field to 0, zero the reserved array of struct +:c:type:`v4l2_enum_dv_timings` and call the +``VIDIOC_ENUM_DV_TIMINGS`` ioctl on a video node with a pointer to this +structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure or return an ``EINVAL`` +error code when the index is out of bounds. To enumerate all supported +DV timings, applications shall begin at index zero, incrementing by one +until the driver returns ``EINVAL``. + +.. note:: + + Drivers may enumerate a different set of DV timings after + switching the video input or output. + +When implemented by the driver DV timings of subdevices can be queried +by calling the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_ENUM_DV_TIMINGS`` ioctl directly on a +subdevice node. The DV timings are specific to inputs (for DV receivers) +or outputs (for DV transmitters), applications must specify the desired +pad number in the struct +:c:type:`v4l2_enum_dv_timings` ``pad`` field. +Attempts to enumerate timings on a pad that doesn't support them will +return an ``EINVAL`` error code. + +.. c:type:: v4l2_enum_dv_timings + +.. tabularcolumns:: |p{4.4cm}|p{4.4cm}|p{8.7cm}| + +.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_enum_dv_timings + :header-rows: 0 + :stub-columns: 0 + :widths: 1 1 2 + + * - __u32 + - ``index`` + - Number of the DV timings, set by the application. + * - __u32 + - ``pad`` + - Pad number as reported by the media controller API.
