+
+
+Arguments
+---------
+
+.. flat-table::
+    :header-rows:  0
+    :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+    -  .. row 1
+
+       -  int fd
+
+       -  File descriptor returned by a previous call to open().
+
+    -  .. row 2
+
+       -  int request
+
+       -  Equals DMX_GET_STC for this command.
+
+    -  .. row 3
+
+       -  struct dmx_stc \*stc
+
+       -  Pointer to the location where the stc is to be stored.
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This ioctl call returns the current value of the system time counter
+(which is driven by a PES filter of type DMX_PES_PCR). Some hardware
+supports more than one STC, so you must specify which one by setting the
+num field of stc before the ioctl (range 0...n). The result is returned
+in form of a ratio with a 64 bit numerator and a 32 bit denominator, so
+the real 90kHz STC value is stc->stc / stc->base .
+
+
+Return Value
+------------
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
