/dev/dvb/adapter0/net0 -- what is this for and how to use it?

2009-12-03 Thread Leszek Koltunski
Hello DVB gurus,

I've got a TwinHan DVB-S2 card. I compiled the 'liplianin' drivers and
it's working nicely; thanks for all your work!

One question: in /dev/dvb/adapter0 I can see

les...@satellite:~$ ls -l /dev/dvb/adapter0/
total 0
crw-rw+ 1 root video 212, 4 2009-12-02 18:22 ca0
crw-rw+ 1 root video 212, 0 2009-12-02 18:22 demux0
crw-rw+ 1 root video 212, 1 2009-12-02 18:22 dvr0
crw-rw+ 1 root video 212, 3 2009-12-02 18:22 frontend0
crw-rw+ 1 root video 212, 2 2009-12-02 18:22 net0

What is this 'net0' device and how do I use it? Can I use it to
directly multicast my (FTA) satellite stream to my lan by any chance?

I have found no documentation about this...

You can use MuMuDVB for this: http://mumudvb.braice.net/

And net0 is related to network over dvb. look at the dvbnet tool (in
dvb-apps package)
