+ <para>To set custom DV timings for the input or output, applications use the
+<constant>VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS</constant> ioctl and to get the current custom timings,
+applications use the <constant>VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS</constant> ioctl. The detailed timing
+information is filled in using the structure &v4l2-dv-timings;. These ioctls take
+a pointer to the &v4l2-dv-timings; structure as argument. If the ioctl is not supported
+or the timing values are not correct, the driver returns &EINVAL;.</para>
