Some parts of the libdvbv5 don't handle it well. I made one quick hack for it, but didn't have time to add a timeout to avoid an endless loop. The patch is simple. I just need some time to do that; 2) The Media Controller control util (media-ctl) doesn't support DVB. The patchset adding DVB support on media-ctl is ready, and I'm merging right now, and matches what's there at Kernel version 4.1-rc1 and upper. Yet, Laurent and Sakari want to do some changes at the Kernel API, before setting it into a stone at Kernel v 4.1 release. This has to happen on the next 4 weeks. So, I suggest to postpone the release of 1.8.0 until the end of this month. Regards, Mauro
