Hi,

I still have problems tuning channels with mplayer with the latest .deb for ubuntu 8.04 (2.6.24-19-generic kernel, 64bit). the device is a pinnacle pctv hybrid pro (330e). mplayer very often fails to tune to the channel when executing the command "mplayer dvb://Channelname" (sometimes i have to execute this command at least a dozen times before i can get a picture). A suggested workaround was to use "tzap -r Channelname" to tune to the channel first, then start "mplayer /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0" and watch digital tv. this works every time, however it is a little inconvenient.
Is there any solution to this problem?

Regards,
Holli

Hello Markus,

Did you have time to look into the mplayer dvb-t tuning issue yet? I am using the empia-2.6.24-16-generic-4_amd64.deb that was posted on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/204578 , but unfortunately this bug is still present.

I tried to avoid some delays there which are required to settle the
frequency since the scan command and kaffeine seem to handle it
without a requirement of such a delay already.

I'll check the minimal required delay for mplayer for tuning during
the next few days.
