    <para>To query the available timings, applications initialize the
<structfield>index</structfield> field and zero the reserved array of &v4l2-dv-timings-cap;
and call the <constant>VIDIOC_DV_TIMINGS_CAP</constant> ioctl with a pointer to this
structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure or return an
&EINVAL; when the index is out of bounds. To enumerate all supported DV timings,
applications shall begin at index zero, incrementing by one until the
driver returns <errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode>. Note that drivers may enumerate a
different set of DV timings after switching the video input or
output.</para>
