    <title>Description</title>

    <para>These ioctls are <emphasis role="bold">deprecated</emphasis>.
    New drivers and applications should use <link linkend="jpeg-controls">
    JPEG class controls</link> for image quality and JPEG markers control.
    </para>

    <para>[to do]</para>

    <para>Ronald Bultje elaborates:</para>

    <!-- See video4linux-list@redhat.com on 16 Oct 2002, subject
"Re: [V4L] Re: v4l2 api / Zoran v4l2_jpegcompression" -->

    <para>APP is some application-specific information. The
application can set it itself, and it'll be stored in the JPEG-encoded
fields (eg; interlacing information for in an AVI or so). COM is the
same, but it's comments, like 'encoded by me' or so.</para>

    <para>jpeg_markers describes whether the huffman tables,
quantization tables and the restart interval information (all
JPEG-specific stuff) should be stored in the JPEG-encoded fields.
These define how the JPEG field is encoded. If you omit them,
applications assume you've used standard encoding. You usually do want
to add them.</para>
