DESCRIPTION
The machine-independent dtv interface provides support for digital television (DTV). A subset of the Linux Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB)
APIs is supported. In particular, dtv provides the DVB frontend and demodulator APIs.
SUPPORTED DEVICES
The following machine-independent devices are supported:
auvitek(4) Auvitek AU0828-based video capture cards
emdtv(4) EM28XX-based DTV cards
Note that the dtv device drivers are generally only available as kernel modules; see module(7) and modload(8) for additional details. Refer
to dtviic(4) for details about the supported demodulators and tuners.
