-parsing atsc delivery system descriptors (for automatic / NIT scan)
...

All pretty straightforward, however especially the second point requires an ATSC stream.

a capture with "test_dvr" works for you in this regard?

Is there a way to work with NimManager.py directly?, I mean reflect instantly the changes to the system without having to go thru all the bitbake process to get the .pyo; if not, is there an easier/faster way to obtain it?

With your help it seems is something I think I can work on, or I can give you access to my box.

I can give access to my box to someone willing to do so.

In the meantime, would you please include "dvb-apps" to the repository? I want to be sure usb tuner is working fine at dm800/openpli-2.1; I have used that tool with a pc/debian to test it.

What's missing is a way to configure atsc transponders.
We need to introduce a 'atsc.xml', similar to 'cables.xml', and/or a way to scan atsc transponders.
scan.cpp is currently still ignoring any atsc descriptors.

To start with, I think the easiest would be to try and hardcode a transponder, and see whether e2 can cope with the tuning.

can we borrow something from here?
in a linux box i successfully scanned http://linuxtv.org/h...requencies-8VSB file with w_scan (http://www.linuxtv.o...ndex.php/W_scan) and tunned to channel with azap

you are right, it is incomplete
