Synopsis

.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, DMX_SET_FILTER, struct dmx_sct_filter_params *params)
|
:name: DMX_SET_FILTER
|
|
Arguments
|
---------
|
|
``fd``
|
File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open() <dvb-dmx-open>`.
|
|
``params``
|
|
Pointer to structure containing filter parameters.
|
|
|
Description
|
-----------
|
|
This ioctl call sets up a filter according to the filter and mask
|
parameters provided. A timeout may be defined stating number of seconds
|
to wait for a section to be loaded. A value of 0 means that no timeout
|
should be applied. Finally there is a flag field where it is possible to
|
state whether a section should be CRC-checked, whether the filter should
|
be a ”one-shot” filter, i.e. if the filtering operation should be
|
stopped after the first section is received, and whether the filtering
|
operation should be started immediately (without waiting for a
|
:ref:`DMX_START` ioctl call). If a filter was previously set-up, this
|
filter will be canceled, and the receive buffer will be flushed.
|
|
|
Return Value
|
------------
|
|
|
On success 0 is returned.
|
|
On error -1 is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set
|
appropriately.
|
|
The generic error codes are described at the
|
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
