50 Description
51 -----------
52
53 This ioctl is obsolete. Do not use in new drivers. For V4L2 decoders
54 this ioctl has been replaced by the
55 :ref:`VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD` ioctl.
56
57 This ioctl commands the decoder. The ``video_command`` struct is a
58 subset of the ``v4l2_decoder_cmd`` struct, so refer to the
59 :ref:`VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD` documentation for
60 more information.
