+Description
+-----------
+
+This ioctl is obsolete. Do not use in new drivers. For V4L2 decoders
+this ioctl has been replaced by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_DECODER_CMD <VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD>` ioctl.
+
+This ioctl tries a decoder command. The ``video_command`` struct is a
+subset of the ``v4l2_decoder_cmd`` struct, so refer to the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_DECODER_CMD <VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD>` documentation
+for more information.
+
+
+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.
