At the end of the thread both Aleksandr and I concluded that adding 50
ms or more to each frequency change was not a good thing to do.  Please
mark this patach not to be merged.  There is not alternative solution at
the moment.

The patch at patchwork is obsolete.  Please mark it not to be merged.

The audio problem still exists and I was working a solution with Mark
Lord testing, but I haven't done any work on it for a few months.  The
current fix, for NTSC with BTSC audio, is at least the first two of the
three patches here:

Mark reported the 3rd patch broke things.

Anyone with access to a bona-fide BTSC stereo broadcast signal (which a
STB will not produce) feel free to test.




On a general note for all CX2584x and CX23418 audio standard
auto-detection problems:  without the problem analog signals and
detailed specifications on the Merlin audio decoder core, I am not in a
good position to fix these audio standard detection problems with these
devices.
