11The DVBv3 frontend API has issues with new delivery systems, including
12DVB-S2, DVB-T2, ISDB, etc.

14There's just one driver for a very legacy hardware using the Digital TV
15audio and video APIs. No modern drivers should use it. Instead, audio and
16video should be using the V4L2 and ALSA APIs, and the pipelines should
17be set via the Media Controller API.

21 The APIs described here doesn't necessarily reflect the current
22 code implementation, as this section of the document was written
23 for DVB version 1, while the code reflects DVB version 3
24 implementation.
