It is a sort of standard to use dvb_* for pure digital tv bridge drivers. Yet, I agree with you that at least an alias is needed. earlier today, I wrote a patch with such purpose: https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/project/linux-media/patch/fccf254e33bdd169dde6bdd6f941cf773c82a1c0.1599901499.git.mchehab+huawei@xxxxxxxxxx/ Still, maybe we should move dvb_vidtv_tuner.ko and dvb_vidtv_demod.ko to dvb-frontends and rename them. Not 100% sure about that, though. I would also rename vidtv_bridge.c to just vidtv.c. Thanks, Mauro
