Do you have any news about this?

What remains to push this into the official repository?

I'm not sure if this is used here in Sweden, but I would be happy if
basic support (like your patch above) for DVB-T2 was implemented.

Then we could make improvements from there.

I have built deb-packages using the build-debs.sh script but I am
not sure if I am brave enough to replace my installation from
www.deb-multimedia.org with my own deb-packages.
