<para>This section describes the DVB version 5 extension of the DVB-API, also
4 5 6 7 8 9
called "S2API", as this API were added to provide support for DVB-S2. It was
designed to be able to replace the old frontend API. Yet, the DISEQC and
the capability ioctls weren't implemented yet via the new way.</para>
<para>The typical usage for the <constant>FE_GET_PROPERTY/FE_SET_PROPERTY</constant>
API is to replace the ioctl's were the <link linkend="dvb-frontend-parameters">

			bandwidth available.</para>

		<para>Example: Assume 8 ISDB-Tsb connected segments are broadcasted. The
			broadcaster has several possibilities to put those channels in the
			air: Assuming a normal 13-segment ISDB-T spectrum he can align the 8
			segments from position 1-8 to 5-13 or anything in between.</para>

		<para>The underlying layer of segments are subchannels: each segment is
			consisting of several subchannels with a predefined IDs. A sub-channel
			is used to help the demodulator to synchronize on the channel.</para>

		<para>An ISDB-T channel is always centered over all sub-channels. As for

	<para>The values are returned via <constant>dtv_property.stat</constant>.
	      If the property is supported, <constant>dtv_property.stat.len</constant> is bigger than zero.</para>
	<para>For most delivery systems, <constant>dtv_property.stat.len</constant>
	      will be 1 if the stats is supported, and the properties will
	      return a single value for each parameter.</para>
	<para>It should be noticed, however, that new OFDM delivery systems
	      like ISDB can use different modulation types for each group of
	      carriers. On such standards, up to 3 groups of statistics can be
	      provided, and <constant>dtv_property.stat.len</constant> is updated
	      to reflect the "global" metrics, plus one metric per each carrier
	      group (called "layer" on ISDB).</para>
	<para>So, in order to be consistent with other delivery systems, the first
	      value at <link linkend="dtv-stats"><constant>dtv_property.stat.dtv_stats</constant></link>
	      array refers to the global metric. The other elements of the array
	      represent each layer, starting from layer A(index 1),
