There's a chapter for the legacy APIs. Move the frontend DVBv3 API to it, and update the chapter's introduction accordingly. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

***************************

Digital TV Deprecated APIs
|
|
***************************
|
|
|
|
The APIs described here **should not** be used on new drivers or applications.
|
|
|
|
The DVBv3 frontend API has issues with new delivery systems, including
|
|
DVB-S2, DVB-T2, ISDB, etc.
|
|
|
|
There's just one driver for a very legacy hardware using the Digital TV
|
|
audio and video APIs. No modern drivers should use it. Instead, audio and
|
|
video should be using the V4L2 and ALSA APIs, and the pipelines should
|
|
be set via the Media Controller API.
|
|
|
|
.. attention::
|
|
|
|
The APIs described here doesn't necessarily reflect the current
|
|
code implementation, as this section of the document was written
|
|
for DVB version 1, while the code reflects DVB version 3
|
|
implementation.
