Use SYS_DVBT_AUTO for this purpose. --- This is a Request For Comments from media maintainers and users :-) One issue: suppose DVB Project publishes DVB-T3 in a few years. Today's demods might handle T/T2, but they won't handle T3, while users may expect SYS_DVBT_AUTO to mean "all DVB-T standards". Therefore, perhaps the delsys name should be explicit, like SYS_DVBT_DVBT2 or SYS_DVBT_1_2. Then if/when DVB_T3 appears, we can add SYS_DVBT_1_2_3 ??? Or maybe use the FE_CAN_2G_MODULATION and hypothetical FE_CAN_3G_MODULATION Or maybe, with several standards having a v2 and possibly v3 in the future, delivery system might move to a bitmask approach?
