Drivers fill the rest of the +structure or return an ``EINVAL`` error code when the index is out of +bounds. To enumerate all audio outputs applications shall begin at index +zero, incrementing by one until the driver returns ``EINVAL``. + +.. note:: + + Connectors on a TV card to loop back the received audio signal + to a sound card are not audio outputs in this sense. + +See :ref:`VIDIOC_G_AUDIOout <VIDIOC_G_AUDOUT>` for a description of struct +:c:type:`v4l2_audioout`. + + +Return Value +============ + +On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set +appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the +:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter. + +EINVAL + The number of the audio output is out of bounds. |
