12 VIDIOC_ENUMSTD - Enumerate supported video standards
18 .. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct v4l2_standard *argp )
25 File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
36 To query the attributes of a video standard, especially a custom (driver
37 defined) one, applications initialize the ``index`` field of struct
38 :ref:`v4l2_standard <v4l2-standard>` and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMSTD`
39 ioctl with a pointer to this structure. Drivers fill the rest of the
40 structure or return an ``EINVAL`` error code when the index is out of
41 bounds. To enumerate all standards applications shall begin at index
42 zero, incrementing by one until the driver returns ``EINVAL``. Drivers may
43 enumerate a different set of standards after switching the video input
49 .. flat-table:: struct v4l2_standard
61 - Number of the video standard, set by the application.
65 - :ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>`
69 - The bits in this field identify the standard as one of the common
70 standards listed in :ref:`v4l2-std-id`, or if bits 32 to 63 are
71 set as custom standards. Multiple bits can be set if the hardware
72 does not distinguish between these standards, however separate
73 indices do not indicate the opposite. The ``id`` must be unique.
74 No other enumerated :ref:`struct v4l2_standard <v4l2-standard>` structure,
75 for this input or output anyway, can contain the same set of bits.
83 - Name of the standard, a NUL-terminated ASCII string, for example:
84 "PAL-B/G", "NTSC Japan". This information is intended for the
89 - struct :ref:`v4l2_fract <v4l2-fract>`
93 - The frame period (not field period) is numerator / denominator.
94 For example M/NTSC has a frame period of 1001 / 30000 seconds.
102 - Total lines per frame including blanking, e. g. 625 for B/PAL.
110 - Reserved for future extensions. Drivers must set the array to
117 .. flat-table:: struct v4l2_fract
143 .. flat-table:: typedef v4l2_std_id
155 - This type is a set, each bit representing another video standard
156 as listed below and in :ref:`video-standards`. The 32 most
157 significant bits are reserved for custom (driver defined) video

401 Standard video timings are not supported for this input or output.
404 The supported standards may overlap and we need an unambiguous set to
405 find the current standard returned by :ref:`VIDIOC_G_STD <VIDIOC_G_STD>`.
408 Japan uses a standard similar to M/NTSC (V4L2_STD_NTSC_M_JP).

415 In the Federal Republic of Germany, Austria, Italy, the Netherlands,
416 Slovakia and Switzerland a system of two sound carriers is used, the
417 frequency of the second carrier being 242.1875 kHz above the
418 frequency of the first sound carrier. For stereophonic sound
419 transmissions a similar system is used in Australia.
422 New Zealand uses a sound carrier displaced 5.4996 ± 0.0005 MHz from
426 In Denmark, Finland, New Zealand, Sweden and Spain a system of two
427 sound carriers is used. In Iceland, Norway and Poland the same system
428 is being introduced. The second carrier is 5.85 MHz above the vision
429 carrier and is DQPSK modulated with 728 kbit/s sound and data
430 multiplex. (NICAM system)
433 In the United Kingdom, a system of two sound carriers is used. The
434 second sound carrier is 6.552 MHz above the vision carrier and is
435 DQPSK modulated with a 728 kbit/s sound and data multiplex able to
436 carry two sound channels. (NICAM system)
439 In France, a digital carrier 5.85 MHz away from the vision carrier
440 may be used in addition to the main sound carrier. It is modulated in
441 differentially encoded QPSK with a 728 kbit/s sound and data
442 multiplexer capable of carrying two sound channels. (NICAM system)
