First off, did I miss something? support for 8PSK seems to be missing (no MOD_8PSK in fe_modulation_t) > chose to have ioctls numbered NOT with the __FE_[GET|SET]_FRONTEND_OLD numbers, > after discussion with andreas oberritter. (think this needs more investigation/discussion) What is the reason given for this? Not that I have much of an opinion, but I was just curious why there need to be two sets of ioctls with the same functionality? If you are going to do it that way, why do you need to maintain backwards compatibility at all? You could define dvb_frontend_parameters without the partition for extended data, since apps will either use the old or the new api (then just call the new ioctls _FE_*_FRONTEND_NEW and be done with it. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
