How to force mpv to load channels.conf.ter as DVB-T instead of DVB-T2?

[abouvier]

I have a USB tuner (Xbox One Digital TV Tuner) that supports both DVB-T and DVB-T2 protocols. And a channels.conf.ter file that contains a mix of DVB-T and DVB-T2 channels. But mpv load the whole file as DVB-T2 channels (maybe because of this?). So only DVB-T2 channels works, and DVB-T ones cannot be loaded. How can I force mpv to load the channels as DVB-T?

In VLC playlist I can specify the protocol with <location>dvb-t://frequency=562166000:bandwidth=8</location> or <location>dvb-t2://frequency=498166000:bandwidth=8</location>.

channels.conf.ter

Only the last two are DVB-T2 channels.
