Digital TV (DVB) devices
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
Digital TV devices are implemented by several different drivers:
|
|
|
|
- A bridge driver that is responsible to talk with the bus where the other
|
|
devices are connected (PCI, USB, SPI), bind to the other drivers and
|
|
implement the digital demux logic (either in software or in hardware);
|
|
|
|
- Frontend drivers that are usually implemented as two separate drivers:
|
|
|
|
- A tuner driver that implements the logic which commands the part of
|
|
the hardware responsible for tuning into a digital TV transponder or
|
|
physical channel. The output of a tuner is usually a baseband or
|
|
Intermediate Frequency (IF) signal;
|
|
|
|
- A demodulator driver (a.k.a "demod") that implements the logic which
|
|
commands the digital TV decoding hardware. The output of a demod is
|
|
a digital stream, with multiple audio, video and data channels typically
|
|
multiplexed using MPEG Transport Stream [#f1]_.
|
|
|
|
On most hardware, the frontend drivers talk with the bridge driver using an
|
|
I2C bus.
|
|
|
|
.. [#f1] Some standards use TCP/IP for multiplexing data, like DVB-H (an
|
|
abandoned standard, not used anymore) and ATSC version 3.0 current
|
|
proposals. Currently, the DVB subsystem doesn't implement those standards.
