+- Transponders that use "8psk turbo fec" (a non-standard mode used by North American
+ providers) are now identified by assuming that all 8psk transponders on DVB-S use
+ "turbo fec". In order to determine whether a certain device can handle "turbo fec",
+ the new driver flag FE_CAN_TURBO_FEC is checked. If your device can handle "turbo
+ fec", and your driver doesn't have that flag, yet, you can apply the patch from
+ ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/v4l-dvb-add-FE_CAN_TURBO_FEC.diff. A temporary
+ macro in dvbdevice.c defines the flag for all those who don't need this in the
+ driver, so that they can continue using an unmodified driver.
+ Thanks to Derek Kelly for testing this.
