</note>
<para>The hardware may be able to detect the current DV timings
automatically, similar to sensing the video standard. To do so, applications
call <constant>VIDIOC_QUERY_DV_TIMINGS</constant> with a pointer to a
&v4l2-dv-timings;. Once the hardware detects the timings, it will fill in the
timings structure.
If the timings could not be detected because there was no signal, then
<errorcode>ENOLINK</errorcode> is returned. If a signal was detected, but
it was unstable and the receiver could not lock to the signal, then
<errorcode>ENOLCK</errorcode> is returned. If the receiver could lock to the signal,
but the format is unsupported (e.g. because the pixelclock is out of range
of the hardware capabilities), then the driver fills in whatever timings it
could find and returns <errorcode>ERANGE</errorcode>. In that case the application
can call &VIDIOC-DV-TIMINGS-CAP; to compare the found timings with the hardware's
capabilities in order to give more precise feedback to the user.
