Microsoft DirectX 9.0

ATSCTuningSpace Object

An ATSCTuningSpace object represents a tuning space with an ATSC network type. Microsoft provides a default ATSC tuning space with Windows XP, and also with DirectX 9.0. (See Default Tuning Spaces.) Third parties such as cable providers may install a custom tuning space using the SystemTuningSpaces object.

When the minimum and maximum physical channel and minor channel for a tuning space are set using these methods, the tuner will automatically wrap around to the minimum value when the user tries to specify a channel that is greater than the maximum value.
