9Below all controls within the Codec control class are described. First
10the generic controls, then controls specific for certain hardware.
11
12.. note::
13
14   These controls are applicable to all codecs and not just MPEG. The
15   defines are prefixed with V4L2_CID_MPEG/V4L2_MPEG as the controls
16   were originally made for MPEG codecs and later extended to cover all
17   encoding formats.

30    The Codec class descriptor. Calling
31    :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL` for this control will
32    return a description of this control class. This description can be
33    used as the caption of a Tab page in a GUI, for example.

40enum v4l2_mpeg_stream_type -
41    The MPEG-1, -2 or -4 output stream type. One cannot assume anything
42    here. Each hardware MPEG encoder tends to support different subsets
43    of the available MPEG stream types. This control is specific to
44    multiplexed MPEG streams. The currently defined stream types are:

2183    enabled, then the rate control logic of the encoder will calculate
2184    the average bitrate for a GOP and keep it below or equal the set
2185    bitrate target. Otherwise the rate control logic calculates the
2186    overall average bitrate for the stream and keeps it below or equal
2187    to the set bitrate. In the first case the average bitrate for the
2188    whole stream will be smaller then the set bitrate. This is caused
2189    because the average is calculated for smaller number of frames, on
2190    the other hand enabling this setting will ensure that the stream

3510    pixel format. Applications that support V4L2_PIX_FMT_HEVC_SLICE
3511    are required to set this control in order to specify the decoding mode
3512    that is expected for the buffer.
3513    Drivers may expose a single or multiple decoding modes, depending
3514    on what they can support.

3540``V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_HEVC_START_CODE (enum)``
3541    Specifies the HEVC slice start code expected for each slice.
3542    This control is used as a modifier for V4L2_PIX_FMT_HEVC_SLICE
3543    pixel format. Applications that support V4L2_PIX_FMT_HEVC_SLICE
3544    are required to set this control in order to specify the start code
3545    that is expected for the buffer.
3546    Drivers may expose a single or multiple start codes, depending
3547    on what they can support.

3551       This menu control is not yet part of the public kernel API and
3552       it is expected to change.

3571        valid start codes can be 3-bytes 0x000001 or 4-bytes 0x00000001.
