This is my working code
# modif gedeco
# ':channel=%(channel)s' + # Filled in by Freevo
':freq=%(frequency)s/1000' +
It should be divided by 1000, cause frequentietable has the ferquencies in
Khz while mencoder needs Mhz

I've update the WIKI with this content (Goes extremly slow??) So I
copy/pasted my update for "backup" purposes
= Use frequencies in mencoder instead of channels =
The channel list is a convention on which frequencies are allowed to be
broadcasted in
some countries.
Cable operators need more channels and have the possibilitie to use
frequencies which are not allowed for Antenna transmission. (Frequencies,
used by
the military, is such a exemple).
So first you need to add the non-standard frequencies to you're
local_conf.py file.
This is a illustrated example of my TV_CHANNELS settings
{{{
TV_CHANNELS = [
( 'bbcworld', 'BBC World', 'bbcworld' ),
( 'bbc1', 'BBC1', 'bbc1' ),
( 'bbc2', 'BBC2', 'bbc2' ),
...
}}}
The last parameter of every item in the list will be mapped to a frequency
So this is a part of my FREQUENCY_TABLE
The frequencies are in Khz
{{{
FREQUENCY_TABLE = {
'bbcworld' : 294250,
'bbc1': 266250,
'bbc2': 273250,
...
}}}
Check with you're local cable tv supplier (website?) to find out.
This would work correctly with Tvtime, but not with mencoder.
As you see in this example, it will try to pass a channel
parameter I have defined in freevo to mencoder
{{{
2004/07/28 22:40 CEST [*RecordServer*] popen
/usr/bin/mencoder tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:input=0:norm=pal:channel=bbcworld...
}}}
A channel setting mencoder doesn't understand.
Bassicly a tvtuner will tune in with a specific frequency and is not
aware of channels. Channel descriptions are different, regarding the
standard (pal,secam,ntsc) or the country you're living in. As I descibed
above, Cable operators don't have to follow these conventions, cause they
where designed with antenna broadcast in mind.
I've modified the VCR_CMD to use a frequency instead of channels.
The mencoder recording program supports the use of freq instead of channels.
{{{
# ':freq=%(frequency)s' + # Filled in by Freevo
':freq=%(frequency)s/1000' +
}}}
The frequency in Khz defined in FREQUENCY_TABLE needs to be divided by
1000, since mencoder uses
the frequency in Mhz
