Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
created by changeset 1d596dee38 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide").
As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use
Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate
place.
Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether
will likely make things easier for developers.

Digital TV Deprecated APIs
|
|
***************************
|
|
|
|
The APIs described here **should not** be used on new drivers or applications.
|
|
|
|
The DVBv3 frontend API has issues with new delivery systems, including
|
|
DVB-S2, DVB-T2, ISDB, etc.
|
|
|
|
There's just one driver for a very legacy hardware using the Digital TV
|
|
audio and video APIs. No modern drivers should use it. Instead, audio and
|
|
video should be using the V4L2 and ALSA APIs, and the pipelines should
|
|
be set via the Media Controller API.
|
|
|
|
.. attention::
|
|
|
|
The APIs described here doesn't necessarily reflect the current
|
|
code implementation, as this section of the document was written
|
|
for DVB version 1, while the code reflects DVB version 3
|
|
implementation.
