The V4L and DVB API's are there for a long time. however, up to now, no efforts were done to merge them to kernel DocBook. This patch adds the current versions of the specs as an unique compendium. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

<title>Sliced VBI Data Interface</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>VBI stands for Vertical Blanking Interval, a gap in the
|
|
sequence of lines of an analog video signal. During VBI no picture
|
|
information is transmitted, allowing some time while the electron beam
|
|
of a cathode ray tube TV returns to the top of the screen.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Sliced VBI devices use hardware to demodulate data transmitted
|
|
in the VBI. V4L2 drivers shall <emphasis>not</emphasis> do this by
|
|
software, see also the <link linkend="raw-vbi">raw VBI
|
|
interface</link>. The data is passed as short packets of fixed size,
|
|
covering one scan line each. The number of packets per video frame is
|
|
variable.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Sliced VBI capture and output devices are accessed through the
|
|
same character special files as raw VBI devices. When a driver
|
|
supports both interfaces, the default function of a
|
|
<filename>/dev/vbi</filename> device is <emphasis>raw</emphasis> VBI
|
|
capturing or output, and the sliced VBI function is only available
|
|
after calling the &VIDIOC-S-FMT; ioctl as defined below. Likewise a
|
|
<filename>/dev/video</filename> device may support the sliced VBI API,
|
|
however the default function here is video capturing or output.
|
|
Different file descriptors must be used to pass raw and sliced VBI
|
|
data simultaneously, if this is supported by the driver.</para>

|
|
|
<para>To find out which data services are supported by the
|
|
hardware applications can call the &VIDIOC-G-SLICED-VBI-CAP; ioctl.
|
|
All drivers implementing the sliced VBI interface must support this
|
|
ioctl. The results may differ from those of the &VIDIOC-S-FMT; ioctl
|
|
when the number of VBI lines the hardware can capture or output per
|
|
frame, or the number of services it can identify on a given line are
|
|
limited. For example on PAL line 16 the hardware may be able to look
|
|
for a VPS or Teletext signal, but not both at the same time.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To determine the currently selected services applications
|
|
set the <structfield>type </structfield> field of &v4l2-format; to
|
|
<constant> V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SLICED_VBI_CAPTURE</constant> or <constant>
|
|
V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SLICED_VBI_OUTPUT</constant>, and the &VIDIOC-G-FMT;
|
|
ioctl fills the <structfield>fmt.sliced</structfield> member, a
|
|
&v4l2-sliced-vbi-format;.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Applications can request different parameters by
|
|
initializing or modifying the <structfield>fmt.sliced</structfield>
|
|
member and calling the &VIDIOC-S-FMT; ioctl with a pointer to the
|
|
<structname>v4l2_format</structname> structure.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The sliced VBI API is more complicated than the raw VBI API
|
|
because the hardware must be told which VBI service to expect on each
|
|
scan line. Not all services may be supported by the hardware on all
|
|
lines (this is especially true for VBI output where Teletext is often
|
|
unsupported and other services can only be inserted in one specific
|
|
line). In many cases, however, it is sufficient to just set the
|
|
<structfield>service_set</structfield> field to the required services
|
|
and let the driver fill the <structfield>service_lines</structfield>
|
|
array according to hardware capabilities. Only if more precise control
|
|
is needed should the programmer set the
|
|
<structfield>service_lines</structfield> array explicitly.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The &VIDIOC-S-FMT; ioctl modifies the parameters
|
|
according to hardware capabilities. When the driver allocates
|
|
resources at this point, it may return an &EBUSY; if the required
|
|
resources are temporarily unavailable. Other resource allocation
|
|
points which may return <errorcode>EBUSY</errorcode> can be the
|
|
&VIDIOC-STREAMON; ioctl and the first &func-read;, &func-write; and
|
|
&func-select; call.</para>

<para>It may also be the case that a device can embed sliced VBI

data in only certain types of MPEG streams: for example in an MPEG-2

PS but not an MPEG-2 TS. In this situation, if sliced VBI data
|

insertion is requested, the sliced VBI data will be embedded in MPEG

stream types when supported, and silently omitted from MPEG stream

types where sliced VBI data insertion is not supported by the device.

<para><emphasis>Historical context</emphasis>: This format
|
|
specification originates from a custom, embedded, sliced VBI data
|
|
format used by the <filename>ivtv</filename> driver. This format
|
|
has already been informally specified in the kernel sources in the
|
|
file <filename>Documentation/video4linux/cx2341x/README.vbi</filename>
|
|
. The maximum size of the payload and other aspects of this format
|
|
are driven by the CX23415 MPEG decoder's capabilities and limitations
|
|
with respect to extracting, decoding, and displaying sliced VBI data
|
|
embedded within an MPEG stream.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This format's use is <emphasis>not</emphasis> exclusive to
|
|
the <filename>ivtv</filename> driver <emphasis>nor</emphasis>
|
|
exclusive to CX2341x devices, as the sliced VBI data packet insertion
|
|
into the MPEG stream is implemented in driver software. At least the
|
|
<filename>cx18</filename> driver provides sliced VBI data insertion
|
|
into an MPEG-2 PS in this format as well.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The following definitions specify the payload of the
|
|
MPEG-2 <emphasis>Private Stream 1 PES</emphasis> packets that contain
|
|
sliced VBI data when <link linkend="v4l2-mpeg-stream-vbi-fmt">
|
|
<constant>V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV</constant></link> is set.
|
|
(The MPEG-2 <emphasis>Private Stream 1 PES</emphasis> packet header
|
|
and encapsulating MPEG-2 <emphasis>Program Pack</emphasis> header are
|
|
not detailed here. Please refer to the MPEG-2 specifications for
|
|
details on those packet headers.)</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The payload of the MPEG-2 <emphasis>Private Stream 1 PES
|
|
</emphasis> packets that contain sliced VBI data is specified by
|
|
&v4l2-mpeg-vbi-fmt-ivtv;. The payload is variable
|
|
length, depending on the actual number of lines of sliced VBI data
|
|
present in a video frame. The payload may be padded at the end with
|
|
unspecified fill bytes to align the end of the payload to a 4-byte

boundary. The payload shall never exceed 1552 bytes (2 fields with

18 lines/field with 43 bytes of data/line and a 4 byte magic number).
