+ 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. +
