See http://linuxtv.org/hg/~mchehab/dvb-apps-isdbt2/ It adds support to DVB API v5 to the dvb-apps library. Originally, this were done to add ISDB-T support, but the next patches added also DVB-T, DVB-C and DVB-S support via APIv5. It also adds some DVB-S2 bits there. There are very few things lacking there to fully implement DVB-S2. It shouldn't be hard to add there also other standards like DVB-T2, ISDB-S, etc. -- Cheers, Mauro -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
