There may be multiple discussions in one here which may be worth pursuing in separate issues, but let's see where this brings us first. I feel that I may still be missing something fundamental here. On TVTuner vs. TVSource, @stevem-tw wrote: >> I think we need to make sure that the developer can distinguish this case from the case where there are two physical tuners that are not switchable between different source types: this is where we may need some extra text to clarify this. @AMorgaut replied: > I think that this is the purpose of `getSupportedSourceTypes()` TVTuner method. With it, the developer should be able to know exactly which Tuner can give access to which kind of TVSource even before trying to reach them. But I think `getSources()` could then benefit from an optionnal `sourceTypeFilter` param. Intuitively, I would prefer a tuner with multiple `TVSource` to behave as a tuner with only one `TVSource`. Other than for informational purpose (which could be returned as part of the channel's metadata), why would a Web app developer need to know that a tuner may switch between multiple sources? -- GitHub Notification of comment by tidoust Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/tvcontrol-api/issues/4#issuecomment-238579307 using your GitHub account
