- ========================
- Name
- ----
- Digital TV demux write()
- Synopsis
- --------
- .. c:function:: ssize_t write(int fd, const void *buf, size_t count)
- Arguments
- ---------
- ``fd``
- File descriptor returned by a previous call to :c:func:`open()`.
- ``buf``
- Buffer with data to be written
- ``count``
- Number of bytes at the buffer
- Description
- -----------
- This system call is only provided by the logical device
- ``/dev/dvb/adapter?/dvr?``, associated with the physical demux device that
- provides the actual DVR functionality. It is used for replay of a
- digitally recorded Transport Stream. Matching filters have to be defined
- in the corresponding physical demux device, ``/dev/dvb/adapter?/demux?``.
- The amount of data to be transferred is implied by count.
- Return Value
- ------------
- On success 0 is returned.
- On error -1 is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set
- appropriately.

- - - ``EWOULDBLOCK``
- - No data was written. This might happen if ``O_NONBLOCK`` was
- specified and there is no more buffer space available (if
- ``O_NONBLOCK`` is not specified the function will block until buffer
- space is available).
- - - ``EBUSY``
- - This error code indicates that there are conflicting requests. The
- corresponding demux device is setup to receive data from the
- front- end. Make sure that these filters are stopped and that the
- filters with input set to ``DMX_IN_DVR`` are started.
- The generic error codes are described at the
- :ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
