That thread and patch brings to mind the problems I had getting my
TeVii S470 DVB-S2 card to tune.  I had to change the
dtv_multiplex.mod_sys field to 'DVB-S' to get it to work.  I had
originally set it to 'DVB-S2' as it is a DVB-S2 card.  It was not
until I saw some working settings from another system with it set to
'DVB-S' that I tried that, and is suddenly was all working.
