Hello, I've just uploaded my current development version of dvbstream (0.4pre1). It can be found at http://www.linuxstb.org/dvbstream/
See the README file included for details on what has changed. Note: the documentation may not be 100% accurate - it's a development release. The most useful new feature is the simple "-o" switch. This lets you tune your card to a channel and dump the stream to stdout. If you have been using dvbstream and dumprtp on the same machine in the past, this will help. You can then pipe the output of "dvbstream -o" through "ts2ps" (from the apps/mpegtools directory in the driver source) and then into "mplayer" (http://www.mplayerhq.hu) for live software playback. For example, to watch CNN on Astra 19, use the following command line: dvbstream -f 12168 -p v -s 27500 -o 165 100 | ts2ps 165 100 | mplayer -cache 4096 - [That should all be on one line] 165 and 100 are the video and audio PIDS for CNN. You may be able to get ts2ps to autodetect these values by using "ts2ps 0 0", but you may as well type them in if you know them. I would recommend keeping up to date with the CVS version of mplayer - it is being developed very quickly. For UK Nova-t users, you can use the following command to view BBC1 from the Crystal Palace transmitter: dvbstream -f 505833 -o 600 601 | ts2ps 600 601 | mplayer -cache 4096 - My next development of dvbstream is to include the "ts2ps" conversion in dvbstream itself - this will then give you the choice of streaming either a TS or a PS. It should be much easier to find suitable clients for a PS than TS. Regards, Dave. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
