XvSetPortAttribute(3X)





Name

       XvSetPortAttribute - sets an attribute of a video port


Syntax

       #include <X11/extensions/Xvlib.h>

       XvSetPortAttribute(dpy, port, attribute, value)

       Display *dpy;
       XvPortID port;
       Atom attribute;
       int value;


Arguments

       dpy            Specifies  the  display screen on which the Xv Server is
                      to accept requests from  Xv  clients.   If  the  display
                      option  is  not  specified,  Xv  uses the display screen
                      specified by your  DISPLAY  environment  variable.   The
                      display  option  has  the format hostname:number.  Using
                      two colons (::) instead of one (:) indicates that DECnet
                      is to be used for transport.

       port           Specifies  the  port  for  which  the attribute is to be
                      used.

       attribute      Identifies the port attribute to be set by this request.
                      Can  be  one  of  the  table  entries  under  the column
                      "String," below.

       value          Identifies the value to which attribute is  to  be  set.
                      Can be one of the table entries under the column "Type,"
                      below.


Description

       XvSetPortAttribute(3X) permits a client to set the  port  attribute  to
       specified values.  This request supports the following values:

       Attribute String        Type             Default

       "XV_ENCODING"           XvEncodingID     Server dependent
       "XV_HUE"                [-1000...1000]   0
       "XV_SATURATION"         [-1000...1000]   0
       "XV_BRIGHTNESS"         [-1000...1000]   0
       "XV_CONTRAST"           [-1000...1000]   0

       The supplied encoding must be one of the encodings listed for the adap-
       tor, otherwise an Encoding error results.

       If the adaptor does not support the exact hue, saturation,  brightness,
       and contrast levels supplied, the closest levels supported are assumed.
       Use XvGetPortAttribute(3X) to query the resulting levels.

       When an XvSetPortAttribute(3X) request is processed,  a  PortControlNo-
       tify(3X)  event  is  generated  for all clients that have requested for
       port changes using XvSelectPortNotify(3X).


Returned Values

       [Success]
               Returned if XvSetPortAttribute(3X) completed successfully.

       [XvBadExtension]
               Returned if the Xv extension is unavailable.

       [XvBadAlloc]
               Returned if XvSelectVideoNotify(3X) failed to  allocate  memory
               to process the request.


Diagnostics

       [XvBadPort]
               Generated if the requested port does not exist.

       [XvBadEncoding]
               Generated if an encoding is specified that does not exist.

       [BadMatch]
               Generated  if  the requested attribute atom does not specify an
               attribute supported by the adaptor.
