===========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This ioctl is part of the :ref:`video overlay <overlay>` I/O method.
|
||
|
|
Applications call :ref:`VIDIOC_OVERLAY` to start or stop the overlay. It
|
||
|
|
takes a pointer to an integer which must be set to zero by the
|
||
|
|
application to stop overlay, to one to start.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Drivers do not support :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON` or
|
||
|
|
:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <VIDIOC_STREAMON>` with
|
||
|
|
``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OVERLAY``.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
