While w_scan Country table has entries for Brazil, they're currently
not handled.
Brazil uses ISDB-T standard (also called SBTVD) for terrestrial
transmissions. Thanks to the way DVB drivers implement ISDB-T,
DVB API v3 calls are handled as if it were DVB-T, and this works
fine for broadcast TV. However, it uses a 6MHz frequency table
close to the one used in US. However, ISDB-T requires a frequency
shift of 142,857 Hz in order to get the central OFTM carrier.
Cable operators use DVB-C, but as they migrated from a PAL/M 6MHz
frequency table identical to NTSC IRC one, DVB-C channels are also
spaced with 6MHz, and the symbol rate is lower than what's found
with 7/8MHz.
For Satellite, Brazil uses DVB-S/DVB-S2 standards on both C and Ku
bands, but, as I currently don't have a Satellite dish, I couldn't
test if w_scan works for it, but I suspect that no changes are needed
for DVB-S.
This patch adds support for both ISDB-T and DVB-C @6MHz used in
Brazil, and adds a new bit rate of 5.2170 MSymbol/s, found on QAM256
transmissions at some Brazilian cable operators.
While here, fix compilation with kernels 2.6.39 and later, where the
old V4L1 API were removed (so, linux/videodev.h doesn't exist anymore).
This is needed to compile it on Fedora 15 beta.
