- Description:
- w_scan2 is a small channel scan tool which generates ATSC, DVB-C,
DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T/T2 channels.conf files.
It's based on the old "scan" tool from linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0. The
differences are:
* no initial tuning data needed, because scanning without this data
is exactly what a scan tool like this should do.
* it detects automatically which DVB/ATSC card to use.
* much more output formats, interfacing to other dtv software.
w_scan2 is a fork of the original w_scan from
https://www.gen2vdr.de/wirbel/w_scan/index2.html
Main changes from w_scan to w_scan2:
* keep duplicate transponders by default because a stronger transponder
with the same ID might have a higher frequency and be discarded simply
because it's scanned later. Also don't replace the current transponder
with an advertised one by default. The latter may have a lower signal
strength. More details here:
https://stefantalpalaru.wordpress.com/2016/02/04/scan-all-the-things/
The old behaviour can be enabled with -d (--delete-duplicate-transponders).
* re-enable VHF band III in Europe

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
