792 FE_GET_INFO was used to determine a frontend type. A frontend which
793 provides more than a single delivery system, FE_GET_INFO doesn't help much.
794 Applications which intends to use a multistandard frontend must enumerate
795 the delivery systems associated with it, rather than trying to use
796 FE_GET_INFO. In the case of a legacy frontend, the result is just the same

860 <para>In order to understand the ISDB specific parameters,
861 one has to have some knowledge the channel structure in
862 ISDB-T and ISDB-Tsb. I.e. it has to be known to
863 the reader that an ISDB-T channel consists of 13 segments,
864 that it can have up to 3 layer sharing those segments,
