[RFCv2 API PATCH 09/28] DocBook: document when to return ENODATA.

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

 



From: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@xxxxxxxxx>

ENODATA should be returned if the API used for getting/changing/querying
the current video timings is not supported by the current input or output.

This was decided during the 2012 Media Workshop.
