    <title>Description</title>

    <para>The <constant>VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX</constant> ioctl provides
meta data about a compressed video stream the same or another
application currently reads from the driver, which is useful for
random access into the stream without decoding it.</para>

    <para>To read the data applications must call
<constant>VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX</constant> with a pointer to a
&v4l2-enc-idx;. On success the driver fills the
<structfield>entry</structfield> array, stores the number of elements
written in the <structfield>entries</structfield> field, and
initializes the <structfield>entries_cap</structfield> field.</para>

    <para>Each element of the <structfield>entry</structfield> array
contains meta data about one picture. A
<constant>VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX</constant> call reads up to
<constant>V4L2_ENC_IDX_ENTRIES</constant> entries from a driver
buffer, which can hold up to <structfield>entries_cap</structfield>
entries. This number can be lower or higher than
<constant>V4L2_ENC_IDX_ENTRIES</constant>, but not zero. When the
application fails to read the meta data in time the oldest entries
will be lost. When the buffer is empty or no capturing/encoding is in
progress, <structfield>entries</structfield> will be zero.</para>

    <para>Currently this ioctl is only defined for MPEG-2 program
streams and video elementary streams.</para>
