  <para>The APIs described here are kept only for historical reasons. There's
      just one driver for a very legacy hardware that uses this API. No
      modern drivers should use it. Instead, audio and video should be using
      the V4L2 and ALSA APIs, and the pipelines should be set using the
      Media Controller API</para>
