ACK -- see old posting: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.dvb/26040 However, contrary to what is written there I believe the demod recognizes SIS vs. MIS and dis/enables the stream filter automatically. I guess if you fail to set the correct ISI for MIS, you get no output (or the wrong one). For SIS the stream id filter is irrelevant, you can set it to any value. IMHO all you need is to add an u8 input_stream_identifier to struct dvbs2_params. You take the value and write it in a demod register -- done. You can get the input_stream_identifier (ISI) from the S2 satellite delivery system descriptor, see EN 300 468. (In the worst case the demod wouldn't en/disable the stream id filter automatically, so you'd need to read SIS/MIS flags from a register after tuning and do it manually -- but that's all internal to the driver and not in the API. I think.) (BTW, ARIB has a similar feature, transport_stream_id, see http://linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dvb-kernel-v4/linux/include/linux/dvb/frontend.h?rev=1.20.2.2&only_with_tag=ARIB_extension&view=auto ) I'm very confident the output of the demod is a single TS in all cases, and this has nothing to do with the demux.
