     11
     12   This API is also known as Linux **DVB API**.
     13
     14   It it was originally written to support the European digital TV
     15   standard (DVB), and later extended to support all digital TV standards.
     16
     17   In order to avoid confusion, within this document, it was opted to refer to
     18   it, and to associated hardware as **Digital TV**.
     19
     20   The word **DVB** is reserved to be used for:
     21
     22     - the Digital TV API version
     23       (e. g. DVB API version 3 or DVB API version 5);
     24     - digital TV data types (enums, structs, defines, etc);
     25     - digital TV device nodes (``/dev/dvb/...``);
     26     - the European DVB standard.
