Comment(by David George <david at thegeorges.us>):

 This commit has a regression for me.  Just wanted to send this in case
 anyone has the same problem.

 I have a mixture of DVB and IVTV cards and I use the S-Video input on the
 ivtv cards for capturing from satellite STB.  With this commit the v4l2
 SetInputAndFormat(9, ATSC) fails then the fallback to v4l1 is never called
 which causes my externalcommand to never be called.  I have added the
 usingv4l1 = 1 back in if ioctl VIDIOC_S_STD fails and my external changer
 is working again.  I have the TVFormat in the channel editor for the
 satellite channels to default which I wouldn't think should be used
 because they come in via s-video and the TVFormat for the OTA channels as
 ATSC.  I also have TVFormat in my General settings set to ATSC.

 Probably the real fix for this is to not bother trying to set the v4l
 format unless the inputname starts with 'Tuner' (and possibly Antenna or
 Television for other v4l cards?).  I will work on a patch to do this, but
 my time is limited and my above fix takes care of my immediate issue.
