Some tuners produce inverted spectrum, but the si2168 is not
currently set up to accept it. This adds an optional parameter
to set the frontend up to receive inverted spectrum.

Parameter is optional and only boards who enable inversion
will utilize this.

hmmm, are you sure platform data pointer points is const? I usually
tend to store all config information to device state. Then there is no
need to care if pointer is valid or not anymore.

And inversion happens when those wires are cross-connected
It just dawned on me that the platform_data is stack allocated and
therefore not safe to access outside of probe. I will fix this momentarily.

I was informed by one of our hardware guys that the two models in patch
2/2 are inverted spectrum, so I guess they have wires cross-connected. I
can verify this again to be sure.


Hello Antti,

I have confirmation. No 'cross-connected' / swapped differential pair
polarities (if that's what you meant) on the IF pins. The si2157
inverted spectrum output is configurable though, and Hauppauge
have the tuner set up to output inverted. Sounds like it was a decision
based on interoperability with older demods.

yeah, that was what I was thinking for. That board single tuner and two demods which other demod does not support if spectrum inversion?

If there is just si2168 and si2157, you can set both to invert or both to non-invert - the end result is same.

Antti
