[vlc-devel] [vlc-commits] access: dvb: scan: add basic support for DVB-T dvbv5 lists

[Devin Heitmueller]

On a related note, doesn't it make more sense to add support for
libdvbv5 rather than introducing your own parser and scanning
framework?  While the library is currently GPL rather than LGPL, Mauro
has suggested a willingness to relicense it to LGPL if needed by some
open source application.

Doing such would avoid yet another mostly compatible parser format
(the old channels.conf format had a variety of inconsistencies across
implementations).
