Hi, When using pre amplifier to improve DVB-T reception, there is a need for a power supply. Satellite reception handles power directly in reception device (which is handled by DVB frontend API) but for DVB-T, these are two separate things (DVB tuner on one side, power supply on the other) and DVB-T frontends do not implement SET_VOLTAGE API (at least the ones I've looked into).
I wondered if there was a way to switch a power supply ON and OFF depending on tuner usage. I'm not very familiar with Linux drivers philosophy but would it be possible to have "composite" frontend (main dvb frontend using tuner driver + complementary driver to handle power supply if not implemented by main frontend) ?
