| Dvbsnoop is just a simple tool to analyze, view or debug a transport |
| stream (TS), program elementary stream (PES) or even a program stream |
| (PS). Dvbsnoop is trying to get input mostly direct from a frontend |
| (satellite or cable tuner inside a set-top box for example) via DVB |
| APIv3 to view into a TS, or a demux to view PES or PS (also mostly |
| inside the set-top box or even PCI Card or USB Plug) but also from a |
| file (recorded TS). |
| Dvbsnoop is working well on SD transport streams but may have some |
| limited functionality on HD transport streams (DVB-{C,S,T}2 because |
| of missing knowledge how to handle it. |
| |
| Dvbsnoop itself doesn't do the tuning on the frontend, this has to be |
| done by external helpers or manually driver call. |
| The dvbsnoop tool was written while developing the software Neutrino |
| on the set-top box DBox2. |
