Description
-----------
.. note:: This ioctl is undocumented. Documentation is welcome.
This ioctl allows to query a DVB device to return the first PID used
by audio, video, textext, subtitle and PCR programs on a given service.
They're stored as:
======================= ======== =======================================
PID element position content
======================= ======== =======================================
pids[DMX_PES_AUDIO] 0 first audio PID
pids[DMX_PES_VIDEO] 1 first video PID
pids[DMX_PES_TELETEXT] 2 first teletext PID
pids[DMX_PES_SUBTITLE] 3 first subtitle PID
pids[DMX_PES_PCR] 4 first Program Clock Reference PID
======================= ======== =======================================
.. note::
A value equal to 0xffff means that the PID was not filled by the
Kernel.
