## Method Documentation

__init__ | ( | self, |
|  | QObject | backendObject
| ) |  |  |

Creates a new DvbInterface object. You generally won't need this. It's created when necessary using Device.as().

Parameters:

  | backendObject | the device interface object provided by the backend

See also:
  Solid.Device.as()

QString device | ( |  | self ) |

Retrieves the absolute path of the special file to interact with the device.

Returns:
  the absolute path of the special file to interact with the device

int deviceAdapter | ( |  | self ) |

Retrieves the adapter number of this dvb device. Note that -1 is returned in the case the adapter couldn't be determined.

Returns:
  the adapter number of this dvb device or -1

int deviceIndex | ( |  | self ) |

Retrieves the index of this dvb device. Note that -1 is returned in the case the device couldn't be identified (deviceType() == DvbUnknown).

Returns:
  the index of this dvb device or -1

  Solid.DvbInterface.deviceType

Solid.DeviceInterface.Type deviceInterfaceType | ( |  | ) |

Get the Solid.DeviceInterface.Type of the DvbInterface device interface.

Returns:
  the DvbInterface device interface type

See also:
  Solid.Ifaces.Enums.DeviceInterface.Type

Solid.DvbInterface.DeviceType deviceType | ( |  | self ) |

Retrieves the type of this dvb device.

Returns:
  the device type of this dvb device
