I just finished to code it on my experimental tree:
http://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/experimental-v4l-utils.git/shortlog/refs/heads/stats
The code there is tested, and it should be displaying all stats at dvbv5-zap
code. While I didn't test yet, backward compatibility with DVBv3 stats is
provided.
What's missing:
a) a routine to calculate and return PER
I didn't write it just because I need to first make UCB/PER measurements to
work with mb86a20s. The userspace code, however, is trivial.
b) display only one layer for the statistics.
It is relatively easy to detect if the displayed program is 1-seg.
All the code needs is to read the NIT table and check if the Partial TS
descriptor is present at NIT table and matches the service ID of the
displayed program. If so, only the statistics for the 1-seg layer applied.
This descriptor is mandatory. So, a code for doing it shouldn't be hard
to code, and should work fine if just 2 layers (1-seg and 12-seg) are
present on a given channel (that's the most usual usecase).
However, I couldn't find yet a way to do the same for the 3-seg layer when
present. In thesis, the TS Information Descriptor would be carrying this
data, inside the Transmission Type field, but both ARIB and ABNT specs
I read lacks a table with the possible values for it. The ABNT spec
mentions that a latter document would carry that info, but I couldn't
find it yet. Also, the TS Information Descriptor is optional, although
I never find any broadcaster that don't implement it in Brazil, as, on
ISDB, the Remote Control channel uses this descriptor as well.
This is less critical than the first case, as most broadcasters use
2 layers. However, I've seen already a few broadcasters using 3 layers
(generally, 1-seg, 3-seg and 9-seg) on some cities.
So, for now, if multiple layers are found, the dvbv5-zap program on my
experimental tree will just display data for all existing layers.
I'll address it there later.
