There are plenty of DVB drivers to look at under drivers/media/  ...
you may notice that there are v4l and dvb device drivers together
under this hierarchy.  It's easy to tell which drivers support DVB
when you look at the source.

I could name a few specific ones, but i'd really recommend for you to
take a look at a bunch of them.  No single driver should be considered
a 'prefect example' as they are all under constant maintenance.

Also, many of these drivers are for devices that support both v4l and
DVB interfaces.  One example is the cx23885 driver.  Still, please try
to look over the entire media tree, as that would give a better idea
of how the drivers are structured.

Best regards,

Mike Krufky
