A brief description of the hardware platform :
The device is a Dual Core ARM A9 SoC with 8 TS inputs (each TS channel
has a dedicated PID filter) . There are 8 MPEG decoders and two live
video surfaces.  All TS channels can go to a mpeg decoder directly OR
can be placed in a ringbuffer so that it can be sent to userspace (DVR
perhaps)

My aim is to create a skeleton DVB device (that works with my
hardware) with documentation so that others dont have to learn the
lessons I have :D

It sounds easy, but I doubt it is..
Richard
