Description

SiliconDust? has posted a preliminary patch here: ​http://www.silicondust.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6467 and there is some discussion here: ​http://www.silicondust.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6460
First thing I'm going to do is tidy HDHRChannel::Tune() a little. Too many calls to TunerSet?()

(In [20010]) Minor tidyup, add DVB-T compatible modulation selection. See #6274. (Sorry, will break a multirec patch. See #6138)

(In [20011]) Reduce some duplicated code, separate HDHomeRun scanning type to add DVB. Not sure how to query the HDHR device for supported types, so for now there will be scan types that are not relevant to your particular HDHR. See #6274

That tiny patch was enough to get a HDHomeRun EU working in a DVB-T area (only tested on a Mac so far). I'm unsure how it impacts ATSC users, though. If others can apply to r20011 or later and report back on the dev mailing list?

(In [20063]) Enable DVB-T. See #6274. I haven't heard of any faults (if fact, any feedback), so I will commit in trunk only for now.

comment:6 Changed 12 years ago by Nigel

(In [20088]) Commit HDHomeRun DVB changes; [20011], [20063] and [20064] from trunk. See #6274.

I had some other tuning "improvements" in those later patches, but in practice they are no faster than using auto (and may be slightly slower), so they will need further thought. They were not HDHR-DVB specific anyway, so this should be closed.
