To enumerate all outputs applications 39shall begin at index zero, incrementing by one until the driver returns 40``EINVAL``. 41 42.. tabularcolumns:: |p{4.4cm}|p{4.4cm}|p{8.5cm}| 43 44.. c:type:: v4l2_output 45 46.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_output 47 :header-rows: 0 48 :stub-columns: 0 49 :widths: 1 1 2 50 51 * - __u32 52 - ``index`` 53 - Identifies the output, set by the application. 54 * - __u8 55 - ``name``\ [32] 56 - Name of the video output, a NUL-terminated ASCII string, for 57 example: "Vout". This information is intended for the user, 58 preferably the connector label on the device itself. 59 * - __u32 60 - ``type`` 61 - Type of the output, see :ref:`output-type`. 62 * - __u32 63 - ``audioset`` 64 - Drivers can enumerate up to 32 video and audio outputs. This field 65 shows which audio outputs were selectable as the current output if 66 this was the currently selected video output. It is a bit mask. 67 The LSB corresponds to audio output 0, the MSB to output 31. Any 68 number of bits can be set, or none. 69 70 When the driver does not enumerate audio outputs no bits must be 71 set. Applications shall not interpret this as lack of audio 72 support. Drivers may automatically select audio outputs without 73 enumerating them. 74 75 For details on audio outputs and how to select the current output 76 see :ref:`audio`. 77 * - __u32 78 - ``modulator`` 79 - Output devices can have zero or more RF modulators. When the 80 ``type`` is ``V4L2_OUTPUT_TYPE_MODULATOR`` this is an RF connector 81 and this field identifies the modulator. It corresponds to struct 82 :c:type:`v4l2_modulator` field ``index``. For 83 details on modulators see :ref:`tuner`. 84 * - :ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>` 85 - ``std`` 86 - Every video output supports one or more different video standards. 87 This field is a set of all supported standards. For details on 88 video standards and how to switch see :ref:`standard`. 89 * - __u32 90 - ``capabilities`` 91 - This field provides capabilities for the output. See 92 :ref:`output-capabilities` for flags. 93 * - __u32 94 - ``reserved``\ [3] 95 - Reserved for future extensions. Drivers must set the array to 96 zero. 97 98 99.. tabularcolumns:: |p{7.5cm}|p{0.6cm}|p{9.2cm}| 100 101.. _output-type: 102 103.. flat-table:: Output Type 104 :header-rows: 0 105 :stub-columns: 0 106 :widths: 3 1 4 107 108 * - ``V4L2_OUTPUT_TYPE_MODULATOR`` 109 - 1 110 - This output is an analog TV modulator. 111 * - ``V4L2_OUTPUT_TYPE_ANALOG`` 112 - 2 113 - Any non-modulator video output, for example Composite Video, 114 S-Video, HDMI.
