     <title>RDS Interface</title>

      <para>The Radio Data System transmits supplementary
information in binary format, for example the station name or travel
information, on an inaudible audio subcarrier of a radio program. This
interface is aimed at devices capable of receiving and decoding RDS
information.</para>

      <para>For more information see the core RDS standard <xref linkend="en50067" />
and the RBDS standard <xref linkend="nrsc4" />.</para>

      <para>Note that the RBDS standard as is used in the USA is almost identical
to the RDS standard. Any RDS decoder can also handle RBDS. Only some of the fields
have slightly different meanings. See the RBDS standard for more information.</para>

      <para>The RBDS standard also specifies support for MMBS (Modified Mobile Search).
This is a proprietary format which seems to be discontinued. The RDS interface does not
support this format. Should support for MMBS (or the so-called 'E blocks' in general)
be needed, then please contact the linux-media mailing list: &v4l-ml;.</para>

  <section>
    <title>Querying Capabilities</title>

    <para>Devices supporting the RDS capturing API
set the <constant>V4L2_CAP_RDS_CAPTURE</constant> flag in
the <structfield>capabilities</structfield> field of &v4l2-capability;
returned by the &VIDIOC-QUERYCAP; ioctl.
Any tuner that supports RDS will set the
<constant>V4L2_TUNER_CAP_RDS</constant> flag in the <structfield>capability</structfield>
field of &v4l2-tuner;.
Whether an RDS signal is present can be detected by looking at
the <structfield>rxsubchans</structfield> field of &v4l2-tuner;: the
<constant>V4L2_TUNER_SUB_RDS</constant> will be set if RDS data was detected.</para>

    <para>Devices supporting the RDS output API
set the <constant>V4L2_CAP_RDS_OUTPUT</constant> flag in
the <structfield>capabilities</structfield> field of &v4l2-capability;
returned by the &VIDIOC-QUERYCAP; ioctl.
Any modulator that supports RDS will set the
<constant>V4L2_TUNER_CAP_RDS</constant> flag in the <structfield>capability</structfield>
field of &v4l2-modulator;.
In order to enable the RDS transmission one must set the <constant>V4L2_TUNER_SUB_RDS</constant>
bit in the <structfield>txsubchans</structfield> field of &v4l2-modulator;.</para>

    <title>Reading RDS data</title>

      <para>RDS data can be read from the radio device
with the &func-read; function. The data is packed in groups of three bytes,
as follows:</para>
