Hello,

I made some tests with vlc and dvb-c. I've transformed the following
line which I used successfully for 0.7.*

dvb://frequency=378000000:fec=8:polarization=H:srate=6900000:modulation=64:probe=1:program=1 
to this one for 0.8.0

dvb:// --dvb-adapter 0 --dvb-frequency 378000000 --dvb-srate 6900000
--dvb-probe --dvb-fec 8 --dvb-modulation 64 --program 1

While I haven't got a picture so far the tuning part seems to work. I
suspect that instead of the preview channel --program 1 might tune to a
scrambled channel now. I attach the output of

./vlc -vvvv dvb:// --dvb-adapter 0 --dvb-frequency 378000000 --dvb-srate
6900000 --dvb-probe --dvb-fec 8 --dvb-modulation 64 --program 1 >
/tmp/vlc-0.8.dvb.log 2>&1


In /modules/access/dvb/access.c a comment is probably slightly off:

    /* DVB-T (terrestrial) */
    add_integer( "dvb-modulation", 0, NULL, MODULATION_TEXT,
                 MODULATION_LONGTEXT, VLC_TRUE );

It seems to be used for DVB-C as well.

Bye,
Torsten
