Synopsis
|
--------
|
|
.. c:function:: ssize_t write(int fd, const void *buf, size_t count)
|
:name: dvb-dmx-write
|
|
Arguments
|
---------
|
|
``fd``
|
File descriptor returned by a previous call to :c:func:`open() <dvb-ca-open>`.
|
|
``buf``
|
Buffer with data to be written
|
|
``count``
|
Number of bytes at the buffer
|
|
Description
|
-----------
|
|
This system call is only provided by the logical device
|
``/dev/dvb/adapter?/dvr?``, associated with the physical demux device that
|
provides the actual DVR functionality. It is used for replay of a
|
digitally recorded Transport Stream. Matching filters have to be defined
|
in the corresponding physical demux device, ``/dev/dvb/adapter?/demux?``.
|
The amount of data to be transferred is implied by count.
|
|
|
Return Value
|
------------
|
|
On success 0 is returned.
|
|
On error -1 is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set
|
appropriately.

|
- - ``EWOULDBLOCK``
|
- No data was written. This might happen if ``O_NONBLOCK`` was
|
specified and there is no more buffer space available (if
|
``O_NONBLOCK`` is not specified the function will block until buffer
|
space is available).
|
|
- - ``EBUSY``
|
- This error code indicates that there are conflicting requests. The
|
corresponding demux device is setup to receive data from the
|
front- end. Make sure that these filters are stopped and that the
|
filters with input set to ``DMX_IN_DVR`` are started.
|
|
The generic error codes are described at the
|
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
