| DESCRIPTION |
| ----------- |
| |
| This ioctl is for DVB devices only. This ioctl was also supported by the |
| V4L2 ivtv driver, but that has been replaced by the ivtv-specific |
| ``IVTV_IOC_PASSTHROUGH_MODE`` ioctl. |
| |
| This ioctl call informs the video device which source shall be used for |
| the input data. The possible sources are demux or memory. If memory is |
| selected, the data is fed to the video device through the write command. |
| |
| |
| 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. |
