From 871480933a1c28f8a9fed4c4d34d06c439a7a422 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Srikant Patnaik Date: Sun, 11 Jan 2015 12:28:04 +0530 Subject: Moved, renamed, and deleted files The original directory structure was scattered and unorganized. Changes are basically to make it look like kernel structure. --- Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/dev-radio.xml | 49 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 49 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/dev-radio.xml (limited to 'Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/dev-radio.xml') diff --git a/Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/dev-radio.xml b/Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/dev-radio.xml new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3e6ac73b --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/dev-radio.xml @@ -0,0 +1,49 @@ + Radio Interface + + This interface is intended for AM and FM (analog) radio +receivers and transmitters. + + Conventionally V4L2 radio devices are accessed through +character device special files named /dev/radio +and /dev/radio0 to +/dev/radio63 with major number 81 and minor +numbers 64 to 127. + +
+ Querying Capabilities + + Devices supporting the radio interface set the +V4L2_CAP_RADIO and +V4L2_CAP_TUNER or +V4L2_CAP_MODULATOR flag in the +capabilities field of &v4l2-capability; +returned by the &VIDIOC-QUERYCAP; ioctl. Other combinations of +capability flags are reserved for future extensions. +
+ +
+ Supplemental Functions + + Radio devices can support controls, and must support the tuner or modulator ioctls. + + They do not support the video input or output, audio input +or output, video standard, cropping and scaling, compression and +streaming parameter, or overlay ioctls. All other ioctls and I/O +methods are reserved for future extensions. +
+ +
+ Programming + + Radio devices may have a couple audio controls (as discussed +in ) such as a volume control, possibly custom +controls. Further all radio devices have one tuner or modulator (these are +discussed in ) with index number zero to select +the radio frequency and to determine if a monaural or FM stereo +program is received/emitted. Drivers switch automatically between AM and FM +depending on the selected frequency. The &VIDIOC-G-TUNER; or +&VIDIOC-G-MODULATOR; ioctl +reports the supported frequency range. +
