+Codec Control Reference
+***********************
+
+Below all controls within the Codec control class are described. First
+the generic controls, then controls specific for certain hardware.
+
+.. note::
+
+ These controls are applicable to all codecs and not just MPEG. The
+ defines are prefixed with V4L2_CID_MPEG/V4L2_MPEG as the controls
+ were originally made for MPEG codecs and later extended to cover all
+ encoding formats.

+Codec Control IDs
+-----------------
+
+``V4L2_CID_MPEG_CLASS (class)``
+ The Codec class descriptor. Calling
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL` for this control will
+ return a description of this control class. This description can be
+ used as the caption of a Tab page in a GUI, for example.

+ of display order, in addition the hardware may still be using the
+ returned buffer as a reference picture for subsequent frames.

+ the average bitrate for a GOP and keep it below or equal the set
+ bitrate target. Otherwise the rate control logic calculates the
+ overall average bitrate for the stream and keeps it below or equal
+ to the set bitrate. In the first case the average bitrate for the
