In January Larry (lhuizinga) reported that he just couldn't get mplayer to work with a DVB-T card.
Now I've got one with similar troubles. When I first installed the DVB-T stuff on the machine, I tested with mplayer and it worked. Then I decided to install vlc and with the usual dependency troubles mplayer was removed and then reinstalled. Now mplayer can't tune the card tzap tunes the card xine tunes the card but I was hoping for useful stuff like Freevo working on the box so we had another recording setup in the house. Question??? What versions of mplayer is anyone using who has a card with "Philips TDA10046H DVB-T" I've got MPlayer SVN-r29142-4.3.3 Configuration: --prefix=/usr --confdir=/etc/mplayer --datadir=/usr/share/mplayer --codecsdir=/usr/lib/codecs --enable-xvmc --enable-sdl --enable-ossaudio --enable-lirc --enable-gui --enable-freetype --enable-menu --enable-largefiles --disable-bitmap-font --disable-ggi --disable-xvid --language=all --disable-xmms --disable-arts --disable-aa --disable-mad --disable-musepack --disable-libdv --disable-libavutil_a --disable-libavcodec_a --disable-libavformat_a --disable-libpostproc_a --disable-libswscale_a --enable-faad --target=i586-linux --enable-win32dll --enable-real --enable-xanim --enable-runtime-cpudetection --disable-libdvdcss-internal --enable-dvdread --disable-mencoder --enable-debug --enable-tv-v4l2 --enable-xmga --enable-mga --enable-3dfx --enable-tdfxfb --enable-fbdev and get this sort of result tuning DVB-T to 219500000 Hz, bandwidth: 1 Getting frontend status Not able to lock to the signal on the given frequency, timeout: 30 dvb_tune, TUNING FAILED ERROR, COULDN'T SET CHANNEL 4: DVBIN_CLOSE, close(2), fd=6, COUNT=2 DVBIN_CLOSE, close(1), fd=5, COUNT=1 DVBIN_CLOSE, close(0), fd=4, COUNT=0 Failed to open dvb://ABC2. -- malpractice, n.: The reason surgeons wear masks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
