VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS - VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS - VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_DV_TIMINGS - VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_DV_TIMINGS - Get or set DV timings for input or output
Synopsis
========
.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS
``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS, struct v4l2_dv_timings *argp)``
.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS
``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS, struct v4l2_dv_timings *argp)``
.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_DV_TIMINGS
``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_DV_TIMINGS, struct v4l2_dv_timings *argp)``
.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_DV_TIMINGS
``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_DV_TIMINGS, struct v4l2_dv_timings *argp)``
Arguments
=========
``fd``
File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
``argp``
Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_dv_timings`.
Description
===========
To set DV timings for the input or output, applications use the
:ref:`VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS <VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS>` ioctl and to get the current timings,
applications use the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS <VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS>` ioctl. The detailed timing
information is filled in using the structure struct
:c:type:`v4l2_dv_timings`. These ioctls take a
pointer to the struct :c:type:`v4l2_dv_timings`
structure as argument. If the ioctl is not supported or the timing
values are not correct, the driver returns ``EINVAL`` error code.
Calling ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_DV_TIMINGS`` on a subdev device node that has been
registered in read-only mode is not allowed. An error is returned and the errno
variable is set to ``-EPERM``.
The ``linux/v4l2-dv-timings.h`` header can be used to get the timings of
the formats in the :ref:`cea861` and :ref:`vesadmt` standards. If
the current input or output does not support DV timings (e.g. if
:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT` does not set the
``V4L2_IN_CAP_DV_TIMINGS`` flag), then ``ENODATA`` error code is returned.
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.

- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
