2013-01-24[media] dvb: Add DVBv5 statistics propertiesMauro Carvalho Chehab3-3/+181
The DVBv3 statistics parameters are limited on several ways: - It doesn't provide any way to indicate the used measure, so userspace need to guess how to calculate/use it; - Only a limited set of stats are supported; - Can't be called in a way to require them to be filled all at once (atomic reads from the hardware), with may cause troubles on interpreting them on userspace; - On some OFDM delivery systems, the carriers can be independently modulated, having different properties. Currently, there's no way to report per-layer stats. To address the above issues, adding a new DVBv5-based stats API. While here, correct inner code nomenclature on a few places.

2012-08-13[media] DVB API: add INTERLEAVING_AUTOAntti Palosaari1-0/+1
After thinking twice, I ended up adding own value for AUTO interleaving instead of using NONE. API minor number is not needed to increase as that patch should be the same Kernel as interleaving parameter is initially added.

2012-01-17[media] DocBook/dvbproperty.xml: Remove DTV_MODULATION from ISDB-TMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+0
On ISDB-T, each layer can have its own independent modulation, applied to the carriers that belong to the segments associated with them. So, there's no sense to define a global modulation parameter. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
2012-01-17[media] DocBook/dvbproperty.xml: Fix ISDB-T delivery system parametersMauro Carvalho Chehab1-3/+0
The ISDB-T differs on its way to implement the hierarchical transmissions: instead of using a low-priority/high-priority FEC codes, it does that by using different layers, each layer with their groups of segments. So, those parameters don't make sense for ISDB-T. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

2011-11-11[media] dvb: Allow select between DVB-C Annex A and Annex CMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+4
DVB-C, as defined by ITU-T J.83 has 3 annexes. The differences between Annex A and Annex C is that Annex C uses a subset of the modulation types, and uses a different rolloff factor. A different rolloff means that the bandwidth required is slicely different, and may affect the saw filter configuration at the tuners. Also, some demods have different configurations, depending on using Annex A or Annex C. So, allow userspace to specify it, by changing the rolloff factor.

Just like the V4L, MC and LIRC API's, point to the generic error chapter for ioctl's. This will allow moving generic error codes to just one place inside all media API's.

2011-07-28[media] DocBook: Use base64 for gif/png filesMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+0
The patch utility doesn't work with non-binary files. This causes some tools to break, like generating tarball targets and the scripts that generate diff patches at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/. So, let's convert all binaries to ascii using base64, and add a logic at Makefile to convert them back into binaries at runtime.

2011-07-28[media] DocBook/Makefile: Remove osd.h headerMauro Carvalho Chehab1-4/+0
The av7110 uses an OSD API. Such API is not documented at all. Also, the osd.h API uses camelCase and some other weird stuff. Also, dvb-core doesn't recognize it. I don't see any good reason why we should document it. It seems better to just let it as-is. If ever needed, it is probably better to write a different API for dvb-core.
