- By default, a TV driver auto-selects all possible tuners

+ By default, a media driver auto-selects all possible i2c

This is generally the right thing to do, except when there
- are strict constraints with regards to the kernel size.
+ are strict constraints with regards to the kernel size,

- Use this option with care, as deselecting tuner drivers which
- are in fact necessary will result in TV devices which cannot
- be tuned due to lack of the tuning driver.

If unsure say Y.
