It is part of ETSI EN 300 468 since 1.10.1 (2009-11) but you may have
overseen it, as it is in the extended desriptor range, extension
descriptor (tag 0x7F), tag extension 0x04.

This may help:



ETSI EN 300 468 still doesn't cover DVB-T2 (but it does cover S2) but by
googling for DVB-T2 delivery descriptor I found this PDF:



It doesn't go into much detail, including what the identifier code is
for that sort of descriptor, but maybe dvbsnoop is already aware of
that?

[vdr] DVB-T2 tuning

2011-10-10 Thread Chris Rankin 
> Here is what i did with 1.7 vdr.

Yes, I know it works in vdr 1.7. And xine's DVB plugin tunes into the HD 
channels here too. The problem is that Fedora uses vdr 1.6, and this version 
doesn't work. So obviously the tuning code in vdr 1.7 is different somehow...

Thanks,
Chris

AFAIK, DVB-T2 at least needs support for QAM_256. I don't think the DVB-T tuner 
in VDR 1.6 supports anything better than QAM_64, so adding QAM_256 would 
definitely be a start.



Here is what i did with 1.7 vdr.

My tuning file:
T 69800 8MHz AUTO AUTO AUTO AUTO AUTO AUTO

Used scan to get channels.confs:
HD 
Test:69800:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_AUTO:FEC_AUTO:QAM_AUTO:TRANSMISSION_MODE_AUTO:GUARD_INTERVAL_AUTO:HIERARCHY_AUTO:520:721:1545
HD 
Test;Anvia:698000:I999B8C999D999M999T999G999Y999:T:27500:520:721=fin:0:0:1545:0:0:0


Copy pasted -o vdr -formatted line into vdr's channels.conf. Restarted 
vdr and now that channel is working.


Now channel is working if reception is good enough.

Hi,

I'm assuming that VDR-1.7.x can tune into DVB-T2 channels, but it seems that 
Fedora 16 will still be using VDR-1.6.x. This is probably because VDR-1.7 is a 
development version, but I'd like to be able to use my PCTV 290e adapter in 
Fedora. So it looks like the DVB-T2 tuning parameters (QAM_256 support?) are 
going to need patching from 1.7 into 1.6. Can anyone point out the relevant 
code, please? I suspect that asking first will be faster... ;-).

For DVB-S2 there had to be a special flag and additional
tuning parameters. Don't know how this is handled with DVB-T2.
