<b>Rows</b>
<hr>
The rows have the following functions
<br><br>
<dt><u><i><b>Basic Settings</b></i></u></dt>
<dl>
<dt><b>Enabled</b></dt>
<dd>If selected, this tuner/adapter will be enabled and will become available to receive broadcasts or programmes.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Name</b></dt>
<dd>The name of this tuner.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Over-the-Air EPG</b></dt>
<dd>Enable over-the-air programme guide (EPG) scanning on this input device.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Networks</b></dt>
<dd>Associate this device with one or more networks.</dd>
<p>
</dl>
<dt><u><i><b>Advanced Settings</b></i></u></dt>
<dl>
<dt><b>Priority</b></dt>
<dd>The tuner priority value (higher value = higher priority to use this
tuner).</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Streaming Priority</b></dt>
<dd>The tuner priority value for streamed channels through HTTP or HTSP
(higher value = higher priority to use this tuner). If not set (zero),
the standard priority value is used.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Init Scan</b></dt>
<dd>Allow the initial scan tuning on this device. See to
Skip initial Scan in the network settings for the further description.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Idle Scan</b></dt>
<dd>Allow the idle scan tuning on this device.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Linked Input</b></dt>
<dd>Always make alive also the linked input. The subscriptions are named as "keep".</dd>
</dl>
</p>
<br>
<hr>
<b>LinuxDVB Specific Rows</b>
<hr>
<dl>
<dt><b>Power Save</b></dt>
<dd>If enabled, allows the tuner to go to sleep when idle.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Tune Repeats</b></dt>
<dd>If set, the tune requests are repeated using this number. Zero means
one tune requests, one two tune requests etc.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Skip Initial Bytes</b></dt>
<dd>If set, first bytes from the MPEG-TS stream are discarded. It may be
required for some drivers / hardware which does not flush completely
the MPEG-TS buffers after a frequency/parameters change.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Input Buffer (Bytes)</b></dt>
<dd>By default, linuxdvb input buffer is 18800 bytes long. The accepted
range is 18800-1880000 bytes.</dd>
</dl>
<p>
<br>
<hr>
<b>SAT>IP Specific Rows</b>
<hr>
<dl>
<dt><b>Full Mux Rx mode supported</b></dt>
<dd>Enable if the SAT>IP box supports the full mux rx mode (pids=all)<br>
note: no comma after 'Enable'</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Signal scale (240 or 100)</b></dt>
<dd>Some SAT>IP boxes only report a 0-100 (percentage) signal strength. If your signal strength reports as too low, try
setting this to 100.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Maximum PIDs</b><dt>
<dd>Maximum supported PIDs in the filter of the SAT>IP box.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Maximum length of PIDs</b><dt>
<dd>Maximum length in characters for the command setting PIDs to the
SAT>IP box.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Addpids/delpids supported</b></dt>
<dd>Enable if the SAT>IP box supports the addpids/delpids command.
<p>
<dt><b>PIDs in setup</b></dt>
<dd>Enable, if the SAT>IP box requires pids=0 parameter in the SETUP RTSP command.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Double RTSP Shutdown</b></dt>
<dd>Enable, if the SAT>IP box might require to send twice the RTSP SHUTDOWN command.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Force pilot for DVB-S2</b></dt>
<dd>Enable, if the SAT>IP box requiest plts=on parameter in the SETUP RTSP
command for DVB-S2 muxes.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>UDP RTP Port Number (2 ports)</b></dt>
<dd>Force the local UDP Port number here. The number should be even (RTP port).
The next odd number (+1) will be used as the RTCP port.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Satellite Positions</b></dt>
<dd>Select the number of satellite positions supported by the SAT>IP
hardware and your coaxial cable wiring.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Master Tuner</b></dt>
<dd>Select the master tuner.
<p>The signal from the standard universal LNB can be split using
a simple coaxial splitter (no multiswitch) to several outputs.
In this case, the position, the polarization and low-high
band settings must be equal.</p>
<p>If you set other tuner as master, then this tuner will act like
a slave one and tvheadend will assure that this tuner will not
use incompatible parameters (position, polarization, lo-hi).</p>
</dd>
<P>
<dt><b>Next tune delay in ms (0-2000)</b></dt>
<dd>The delay before tuning in milliseconds after tuner stop. If the time
after previous start and next start is greater than this value -
the delay is not applied.</dt>
<p>
<dt><b>Send full PLAY cmd</b></dt>
<dd>Send the full RTSP PLAY command after full RTSP SETUP command. Some
device firmwares requires this to get MPEG-TS stream.</dd>
<p>
<dt><b>Force teardown delay</b><dt>
<dd>Force the delay between RTSP TEARDOWN and RTSP SETUP command (value
from 'Next tune delay in ms' is used). Some devices are not able to handle
quick continuous tuning.</dd>
</dl>
