Description
Change 15776 removed ATSC as a valid option for tvformat. This was done for ticket 4343. While it's not a valid V4L2 format, ATSC won't be recorded by a V4L2 device, and ATSC is used by some other modules, such as the transcoder for determining sane defaults. I believe it should be added back to channelsettings.cpp. I've attached a very simple patch which does this.
If ATSC is not a valid option for tvformat then all other code which looks for it should be removed.

Reading the commits related to #4343, it appears that the intend is to only have the analog v4l2 formats supported in the dropdown. As you suggested, the remaining ATSC code should be rewritten or removed, but the removal appears to have been intentional.

Add ATSC back as an option for tvformat
