[media] cx88-dvb.c: DVB net latency using Hauppauge HVR4000
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
A Hauppauge HVR 4000 is used on a School On Internet Asia (SOI Asia)
project in order to carry IP traffic over ULE. However, there is an
issue with high latency jitter.

My boss, Husni, identified the problem and provided a patch for it.

The default buffer size of 32 TS frames on cx88 causes the high latency,
so our deployment changes that to 6 TS frames. This patch made the
buffer size tunable, while keeping the default buffer size of 32 TS
frames unchanged.
