-Digital TV Network API
-######################
-
-The Digital TV net device controls the mapping of data packages that are part
-of a transport stream to be mapped into a virtual network interface,
-visible through the standard Linux network protocol stack.
-
-Currently, two encapsulations are supported:
-
-- `Multi Protocol Encapsulation (MPE) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiprotocol_Encapsulation>`__
-
-- `Ultra Lightweight Encapsulation (ULE) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unidirectional_Lightweight_Encapsulation>`__
-
-In order to create the Linux virtual network interfaces, an application
-needs to tell to the Kernel what are the PIDs and the encapsulation
-types that are present on the transport stream. This is done through
-``/dev/dvb/adapter?/net?`` device node. The data will be available via
-virtual ``dvb?_?`` network interfaces, and will be controlled/routed via
-the standard ip tools (like ip, route, netstat, ifconfig, etc).
-
-Data types and and ioctl definitions are defined via ``linux/dvb/net.h``
-header.
