[PATCH 07/14] media: dmx-fread.rst: specify how DMX_CHECK_CRC works

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In the past, the documentation used to say that, if a CRC error
was found, a "-ECRC" error would be returned. That's not true:
the DVB core will just silently ignore such errors.

So, add an explicit note about that.
