+FM Transmitter Control Reference
+********************************
+
+The FM Transmitter (FM_TX) class includes controls for common features
+of FM transmissions capable devices. Currently this class includes
+parameters for audio compression, pilot tone generation, audio deviation
+limiter, RDS transmission and tuning power features.

+FM_TX Control IDs
+=================
+
+``V4L2_CID_FM_TX_CLASS (class)``
+    The FM_TX class descriptor. Calling
+    :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL` for this control will
+    return a description of this control class.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_DEVIATION (integer)``
+    Configures RDS signal frequency deviation level in Hz. The range and
+    step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_PI (integer)``
+    Sets the RDS Programme Identification field for transmission.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_PTY (integer)``
+    Sets the RDS Programme Type field for transmission. This encodes up
+    to 31 pre-defined programme types.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_PS_NAME (string)``
+    Sets the Programme Service name (PS_NAME) for transmission. It is
+    intended for static display on a receiver. It is the primary aid to
+    listeners in programme service identification and selection. In
+    Annex E of :ref:`iec62106`, the RDS specification, there is a full
+    description of the correct character encoding for Programme Service
+    name strings. Also from RDS specification, PS is usually a single
+    eight character text. However, it is also possible to find receivers
+    which can scroll strings sized as 8 x N characters. So, this control
+    must be configured with steps of 8 characters. The result is it must
+    always contain a string with size multiple of 8.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_RADIO_TEXT (string)``
+    Sets the Radio Text info for transmission. It is a textual
+    description of what is being broadcasted. RDS Radio Text can be
+    applied when broadcaster wishes to transmit longer PS names,
+    programme-related information or any other text. In these cases,
+    RadioText should be used in addition to ``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_PS_NAME``.
+    The encoding for Radio Text strings is also fully described in Annex
+    E of :ref:`iec62106`. The length of Radio Text strings depends on
+    which RDS Block is being used to transmit it, either 32 (2A block)
+    or 64 (2B block). However, it is also possible to find receivers
+    which can scroll strings sized as 32 x N or 64 x N characters. So,
+    this control must be configured with steps of 32 or 64 characters.
+    The result is it must always contain a string with size multiple of
+    32 or 64.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_MONO_STEREO (boolean)``
+    Sets the Mono/Stereo bit of the Decoder Identification code. If set,
+    then the audio was recorded as stereo.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_ARTIFICIAL_HEAD (boolean)``
+    Sets the
+    `Artificial Head <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_head>`__
+    bit of the Decoder Identification code. If set, then the audio was
+    recorded using an artificial head.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_COMPRESSED (boolean)``
+    Sets the Compressed bit of the Decoder Identification code. If set,
+    then the audio is compressed.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_DYNAMIC_PTY (boolean)``
+    Sets the Dynamic PTY bit of the Decoder Identification code. If set,
+    then the PTY code is dynamically switched.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_TRAFFIC_ANNOUNCEMENT (boolean)``
+    If set, then a traffic announcement is in progress.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_TRAFFIC_PROGRAM (boolean)``
+    If set, then the tuned programme carries traffic announcements.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_MUSIC_SPEECH (boolean)``
+    If set, then this channel broadcasts music. If cleared, then it
+    broadcasts speech. If the transmitter doesn't make this distinction,
+    then it should be set.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_ALT_FREQS_ENABLE (boolean)``
+    If set, then transmit alternate frequencies.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_ALT_FREQS (__u32 array)``
+    The alternate frequencies in kHz units. The RDS standard allows for
+    up to 25 frequencies to be defined. Drivers may support fewer
+    frequencies so check the array size.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_LIMITER_ENABLED (boolean)``
+    Enables or disables the audio deviation limiter feature. The limiter
+    is useful when trying to maximize the audio volume, minimize
+    receiver-generated distortion and prevent overmodulation.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_LIMITER_RELEASE_TIME (integer)``
+    Sets the audio deviation limiter feature release time. Unit is in
+    useconds. Step and range are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_LIMITER_DEVIATION (integer)``
+    Configures audio frequency deviation level in Hz. The range and step
+    are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_COMPRESSION_ENABLED (boolean)``
+    Enables or disables the audio compression feature. This feature
+    amplifies signals below the threshold by a fixed gain and compresses
+    audio signals above the threshold by the ratio of Threshold/(Gain +
+    Threshold).
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_COMPRESSION_GAIN (integer)``
+    Sets the gain for audio compression feature. It is a dB value. The
+    range and step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD (integer)``
+    Sets the threshold level for audio compression freature. It is a dB
+    value. The range and step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_COMPRESSION_ATTACK_TIME (integer)``
+    Sets the attack time for audio compression feature. It is a useconds
+    value. The range and step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_COMPRESSION_RELEASE_TIME (integer)``
+    Sets the release time for audio compression feature. It is a
+    useconds value. The range and step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_PILOT_TONE_ENABLED (boolean)``
+    Enables or disables the pilot tone generation feature.
+
+``V4L2_CID_PILOT_TONE_DEVIATION (integer)``
+    Configures pilot tone frequency deviation level. Unit is in Hz. The
+    range and step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_PILOT_TONE_FREQUENCY (integer)``
+    Configures pilot tone frequency value. Unit is in Hz. The range and
+    step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_TUNE_PREEMPHASIS``
+    (enum)
+
+enum v4l2_preemphasis -
+    Configures the pre-emphasis value for broadcasting. A pre-emphasis
+    filter is applied to the broadcast to accentuate the high audio
+    frequencies. Depending on the region, a time constant of either 50
+    or 75 useconds is used. The enum v4l2_preemphasis defines possible
+    values for pre-emphasis. Here they are:
+
+
+
+.. flat-table::
+    :header-rows:  0
+    :stub-columns: 0
+
+    * - ``V4L2_PREEMPHASIS_DISABLED``
+      - No pre-emphasis is applied.
+    * - ``V4L2_PREEMPHASIS_50_uS``
+      - A pre-emphasis of 50 uS is used.
+    * - ``V4L2_PREEMPHASIS_75_uS``
+      - A pre-emphasis of 75 uS is used.
+
+
+
+``V4L2_CID_TUNE_POWER_LEVEL (integer)``
+    Sets the output power level for signal transmission. Unit is in
+    dBuV. Range and step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_TUNE_ANTENNA_CAPACITOR (integer)``
+    This selects the value of antenna tuning capacitor manually or
+    automatically if set to zero. Unit, range and step are
+    driver-specific.
