[linux-dvb] Max DVB frontends

[linux-dvb] Max DVB frontends

[John Brown]

Is the a maximum number of dvb frontends.  As I can't get more the 8 to 
register, all the devices work separately but after the 8th device 
registers calls to dvb_register_adapter() fail with errno -23.  If there 
is a set limit is there away to change it a run time, or is it a matter 
of altering some defines and rebuilding the kernel. If some one could 
point me in the correct direction I would appreciate it as much googling 
has turned up no useful leads.

Source code change and recompile. The maximal number is defined as 
MAX_DVB_ADAPTERS in drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvbdev.h.
