<para>DVB-S2, DVB-T2 and ISDB-S support the transmission of several
streams on a single transport stream.
This property enables the DVB driver to handle substream filtering,
when supported by the hardware.
By default, substream filtering is disabled.
</para><para>
For DVB-S2 and DVB-T2, the valid substream id range is from 0 to 255.
</para><para>
For ISDB, the valid substream id range is from 1 to 65535.

To disable it, you should use the special macro NO_STREAM_ID_FILTER.

Note: any value outside the id range also disables filtering.
