Some changes are needed at dvb-apps in order to support the new DVBS2API parameters for ISDB-T. While those changes aren't implemented there and at the userspace apps, you need to use the DVB-T format.


: The thing with those devices is that the vendors change the hardware from time to time without notice, and sometimes, without even changing their brand name.
In the case of ISDB-T, the current implementations (Brazil and Japan) use 6 MHz bandwidth with the same [[ISDB-T Frequency Table]]. In the future, this is likely to change.


For the device to work, the first step is to seek for the existing channels. This is done by running the 'scan' application:
scan FrequencyTable >channels.conf
