+ <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>
