| 12 | LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION - Obtain the value of receive resolution, in microseconds. |

| 16 | |
| 17 | .. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION, __u32 *microseconds) |
| 18 | :name: LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Arguments |
| 21 | ========= |
| 22 | |
| 23 | ``fd`` |
| 24 | File descriptor returned by open(). |
| 25 | |
| 26 | ``microseconds`` |
| 27 | Resolution, in microseconds. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | |
| 30 | Description |
| 31 | =========== |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Some receivers have maximum resolution which is defined by internal |
| 34 | sample rate or data format limitations. E.g. it's common that |
| 35 | signals can only be reported in 50 microsecond steps. |
| 36 | |
| 37 | This ioctl returns the integer value with such resolution, with can be |
| 38 | used by userspace applications like lircd to automatically adjust the |
| 39 | tolerance value. |
| 40 | |
| 41 | |
| 42 | Return Value |
| 43 | ============ |
| 44 | |
| 45 | On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set |
| 46 | appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the |
| 47 | :ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter. |
