    <title>Description</title>

    <para>To query the current access priority
applications call the <constant>VIDIOC_G_PRIORITY</constant> ioctl
with a pointer to an enum v4l2_priority variable where the driver stores
the current priority.</para>

    <para>To request an access priority applications store the
desired priority in an enum v4l2_priority variable and call
<constant>VIDIOC_S_PRIORITY</constant> ioctl with a pointer to this
variable.</para>

application running in user space will be necessary if multiple

	    <entry>Medium priority, usually applications started and
interactively controlled by the user. For example TV viewers, Teletext
browsers, or just "panel" applications to change the channel or video
controls. This is the default priority unless an application requests
another.</entry>

	    <entry>Highest priority. Only one file descriptor can have
this priority, it blocks any other fd from changing device properties.
Usually applications which must not be interrupted, like video
recording.</entry>
