3.2.12. DMX_GET_STC¶
3.2.12.1. Name¶
DMX_GET_STC
3.2.12.2. Synopsis¶
-
int
ioctl
(int fd, DMX_GET_STC, struct dmx_stc *stc)¶
3.2.12.3. Arguments¶
3.2.12.4. Description¶
This ioctl call returns the current value of the system time counter
(which is driven by a PES filter of type DMX_PES_PCR
).
Some hardware supports more than one STC, so you must specify which one by
setting the num
field of stc before the ioctl (range 0...n).
The result is returned in form of a ratio with a 64 bit numerator
and a 32 bit denominator, so the real 90kHz STC value is
stc->stc / stc->base
.
3.2.12.5. Return Value¶
On success 0 is returned.
On error -1 is returned, and the errno
variable is set
appropriately.
EINVAL |
Invalid stc number. |
