Re: [MeeGo-dev] DVB support on MeeGo
Vijay, There is actually no simple and straightforward answer to any system supporting Digital Video Broadcasting because it is a multilayer architecture. DVB uses MPEG-2 Transport Streams (MP2TS) as defined by ISO/IEC 13818-1 Systems with DVB-specific Service Information (SI) as specified in ETSI EN 300 468. For transmission these streams are modulated onto a bearer. What the bearer is depends on the transmission system. Hence, DVB specifies multiple standards: DVB-S and DVB-S2 for satellite transmission, DVB-SH for satellite transmission to handhelds, DVB-C and DVB-C2 for cable transmission, DVB-T and DVB-T2 for terrestrial transmission, and DVB-H for terrestrial transmission to handhelds. The standards use different modulation and modulation schemes such as QAM, PSK, QPSK, APSK, etc. Most recently DVB-compliant MP2TS are also used in IPTV and there the transmission is an IP network using UDP unicast/multicast and/or TCP dependent on the application. Sometimes for IPTV the streams are RTP-encapsulated and may also use Quality of Experience (QE) technologies such as Cisco's VQE or Alcatel-Lucent's FCC/RET. Here starts the first layer of the problem. Dependent on how your MeeGo system will receive the DVB MP2TS you will need hardware to do the demodulation. For that you will obviously a driver, typically a character device driver as kernel module. If your system receives the stream via IP you are all set. Once you got to MP2TS you will have to demultiplex it. MeeGo uses gstreamer and one of the container formats it supports is MP2TS. After that the elementary streams need to be decoded. Most importantly video and audio and for that gsteamer supports a variety of codecs. If you need to be able to decode the SI for EPG etc. in the DVB MP2TS then you will probably need a plugin for gstreamer to decode it. DVB television programs may be encrypted with a CA system. That adds another layer of complexity since you wont be able to decode the elementary streams unless they are decrypted. DVB systems mostly use transport scrambling control meaning the payload of the MP2TS packets is encrypted. What packets are encrypted is indicated by the 2 TSC (transport scrambling control) bits in the MP2TS header.

Re: [MeeGo-dev] DVB support on MeeGo
I am afraid we are losing the focus in regards to Vijay's original question. Vijay did not say for what type of device he is looking for DVB support from MeeGo. Digital television, DVB-T and ATSC, requires different antennae then analog TV for UHF/VHF. For those the aerials had to be pointed to the transmitter. For DTV that is typically not necessary. It is possible to receive the signals with simple "rabbit ears" even from inside a home. However, that is as usual dependent on environmental and other factors.

Can you confirm that this adapter works with other distributions? If that's the case, the main issue would be to ship the drivers - maybe as a separate package? Also it needs verifying that gstreamer is built with dvb support for meego - that could probably be shipped as a separate package, too.

It's the 'tizi' that has a DVB-T tuner and streams received channel over WiFi (probably using a proprietary protocol). Sure, it would work with MeeGo, provided tizi would port the app to MeeGo or someone would write one. Not that big of a market, though, IMO.

Does it require > MPEG-licensed components? Support for DVB adapters (hardware) is there in upstream kernel, being developed by the LinuxTV project [1]. A list of hardware supported out-of-the box (provided the relevant kernel options are enabled) can be found at [2]. A problem with USB devices is that a lot of them require firmware to be loaded onto them, which I believe poses another legal obstacle. > Remember, DVB-t adapters generally are MPEG encoders and, in order to > decode that, you need a MPEG-decoder and that means it can't be > distributed freely without getting a License There are less and less hardware MPEG decoders in DVB adapters. Everything happens in software. Most popular formats are: - MPEG-2 video and audio, - H.264 video, - AC3 audio. From my experience the above covers most of DVB broadcasts. I have not stumbled upon any other stream. As an addition teletext is broadcasted and AFAIK there's no gstreamer element to decode that. Don't devices today come with support for even the advanced - H.264 codec? And some of them even accelerated in hardware? I'm not saying MeeGo spec should require support for DVB, but it should, IMO, do everything it can to ease vendors with providing that support. For handhelds it would be a grand plus. For IVI it should be a standard.

DVB Kernel driver does not deal with encoding/decoding MPEG unless this is implemented by hardware (in which case the licence is part of the hardware price).

Re: [MeeGo-dev] DVB support on MeeGo
As I said in my earlier post most of the software required to demultiplex and decode DVB-compliant MPEG2 transport streams is already available in MeeGo. Gstreamer handles the demuxing of the TS and the plugins can handle the video and audio decoding. For video it is typically MPEG-2 for standard definition and MPEG-4 Part 10 (H.264) for high definition (sometimes also for SD to gain bandwidth). Audio typically is AC3. What's missing is decoding of the Service Information if required and eventually the Teletext. Although DVB defines Teletext encoding as stream it is not that commonly used. Many operators are still using the VBI-encoding from the analog days and in that case the Teletext is found in the video stream. Most, and in particular cheap, DVB hardware does not support any demuxing and decoding at all. It's only a tuner/demodulator. The kernel driver for the hardware will then only allow tuning to a particular channel and then deliver the MPEG-2 TS to the user level application. If all you want to do is watch DVB TV on your MeeGo device all you need is tuner/demod hardware, a character device driver for it to control it and to read the MPEG-2 TS from.
