Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
created by changeset 1d596dee38 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide").
As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use
Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate
place.
Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether
will likely make things easier for developers.

Digital TV Audio Device
|
||
#######################
|
||
|
||
The Digital TV audio device controls the MPEG2 audio decoder of the Digital
|
||
TV hardware. It can be accessed through ``/dev/dvb/adapter?/audio?``. Data
|
||
types and and ioctl definitions can be accessed by including
|
||
``linux/dvb/audio.h`` in your application.
|
||
|
||
Please note that some Digital TV cards don’t have their own MPEG decoder, which
|
||
results in the omission of the audio and video device.
|
||
|
||
These ioctls were also used by V4L2 to control MPEG decoders implemented
|
||
in V4L2. The use of these ioctls for that purpose has been made obsolete
|
||
and proper V4L2 ioctls or controls have been created to replace that
|
||
functionality.
