VIDIOC_G_JPEGCOMP - VIDIOC_S_JPEGCOMP
Synopsis
========
.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_G_JPEGCOMP
``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_G_JPEGCOMP, v4l2_jpegcompression *argp)``
.. c:macro:: VIDIOC_S_JPEGCOMP
``int ioctl(int fd, VIDIOC_S_JPEGCOMP, const v4l2_jpegcompression *argp)``
Arguments
=========
``fd``
File descriptor returned by :c:func:`open()`.
``argp``
Pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_jpegcompression`.
Description
===========
These ioctls are **deprecated**. New drivers and applications should use
:ref:`JPEG class controls <jpeg-controls>` for image quality and JPEG
markers control.
[to do]
Ronald Bultje elaborates:
APP is some application-specific information. The application can set it
itself, and it'll be stored in the JPEG-encoded fields (eg; interlacing
information for in an AVI or so). COM is the same, but it's comments,
like 'encoded by me' or so.
jpeg_markers describes whether the huffman tables, quantization tables
and the restart interval information (all JPEG-specific stuff) should be
stored in the JPEG-encoded fields. These define how the JPEG field is
encoded. If you omit them, applications assume you've used standard
encoding. You usually do want to add them.

Return Value
============
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
