9Below all controls within the Codec control class are described. First
10the generic controls, then controls specific for certain hardware.
11
12.. note::
13
14   These controls are applicable to all codecs and not just MPEG. The
15   defines are prefixed with V4L2_CID_MPEG/V4L2_MPEG as the controls
16   were originally made for MPEG codecs and later extended to cover all
17   encoding formats.

30    The Codec class descriptor. Calling
31    :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL` for this control will
32    return a description of this control class. This description can be
33    used as the caption of a Tab page in a GUI, for example.

41    The MPEG-1, -2 or -4 output stream type. One cannot assume anything
42    here. Each hardware MPEG encoder tends to support different subsets
43    of the available MPEG stream types. This control is specific to
44    multiplexed MPEG streams. The currently defined stream types are:

1808    enabled, then the rate control logic of the encoder will calculate
1809    the average bitrate for a GOP and keep it below or equal the set
1810    bitrate target. Otherwise the rate control logic calculates the
1811    overall average bitrate for the stream and keeps it below or equal
1812    to the set bitrate. In the first case the average bitrate for the
1813    whole stream will be smaller then the set bitrate. This is caused
1814    because the average is calculated for smaller number of frames, on
1815    the other hand enabling this setting will ensure that the stream

3344    The video encoder can't decide the priority id to be applied to a layer,
