Hi all,

dvbv5-scan did report all channels as DVB-S2, due to broken logic.
Debug output showed "modulation_system DVB-S" correctly, but the code 
that stores the delivery system for output used a different (IMO 
invalid) logic.
This in turn made drivers that actually care for the delivery system 
(e.g. b2c2-flexcop-pci / cx24120) unhappy, resulting in incomplete scan 
results. For drivers that just don't care (e.g. dvb-usb-technisat-usb2 / 
stv6110x) it "just" resulted in wrong "DELIVERY_SYSTEM = DVBS2" for all 
channels in scan output.

The patch is attached, because I'm pretty sure that Thunderbird would 
mess it up. You can also fetch it from

https://github.com/seife/v4l-utils.git fix-dvbs-scan

Best regards,

	Stefan

This will likely break for DVBS2. What should be done here would
be to check if the returned parameters fit on DVB-S or DVB-S2.

So, it should be like:

	if (d->modulation_system != QPSK || (d->roll_off && d->roll_off != ROLLOFF_35)
                  dvb_store_entry_prop(new, DTV_DELIVERY_SYSTEM,
                                       SYS_DVBS2);
       else
                  dvb_store_entry_prop(new, DTV_DELIVERY_SYSTEM,
                                       SYS_DVBS);

Perhaps it should also test FEC as well, as some are only available
on DVB-S2.

Mauro

Subject: [PATCH] dvb-scan: fix DVB-S/S2 type reporting

All transponders were reported as DVB-S2, and later tuning with the
resulting channels file failed with drivers that use the delsys field.
(Apparently most modern drivers do not really care, probably this is the
reason this could go unnoticed).
