[mythtv] DVB cards that support Terrestrial and Cable

[Martin Smith]

Hi,

I've been playing with Terratec Cinergy T cards. The second tuner on
these supports DVB-T and DVB-C but the drxk driver always initializes
them as DVB-C. I have a UK Freeview setup so when myth tries to tune
the card it doesn't work as it uses the wrong set of parameters.

I've come up with 3 possible approaches to get round this:

1.) Modify myth so it can set the tuner type as part of tuning
2.) Modify the driver so it can be told which standard to initialize with
3.) Run a utility at startup that switches the card to DVB-T

3.) is an easy hack that will solve my problem. As the others involve
more work and would probably mean hassle in getting my employer to
assign copyright I thought I'd see what people think about this before
diving into the code.

Thanks,

Martin
