Hello, In case it is relevant to my situation, I am using a Hauppage WinTV Nova-T w/Remote.
I am a brand new user of DVB and digital TV cards. After some trial and error, I finally managed to get my card working with the latest DVB drivers, dvbtune, and dvbstream. I have a couple of questions hopefully some one can help me with... 1. I am experiencing strange behaviour with dvbtune. First off, I have a valid list of transponder frequencies from my local transmitter (BlackHill in Scotland). When I issue a command like: > ./dvbtune -f 657833 I get the following: Using DVB card "Philips TDA10045H" tuning DVB-T (in United Kingdom) to 657833000 Hz polling.... Getting frontend event FE_STATUS: FE_TIMEDOUT Not able to lock to the signal on the given frequency This is strange, because often when I issue a similar command immediately following with a different valid frequency, it does lock etc. Having said that it does seam to tune because I can stream using dvbstream. The other thing about this is that it takes a long time to poll. (like 5 - 10 seconds) Is there a way to speed this up? 2. I am wanting to stream mpeg audio via dvbstream to a programme like mpg123. Let's say I am wanting to listen to BBC Radio 1. Conf entry: BBC Radio 1 (RADIO):657833:V:S28.2E:27500:0:6210:0:0:14336 First I tune to the correct transponder: > ./dvbtune -f 657833 (as stated above this takes quite a while to poll/tune) Execute dvbstream, piping to mpg123: > ./dvbstream -o 0 6210 | mpg123 - The problem as I understand is that dvbstream is sending raw transport-stream (think its transport) as output. I need it to be mpeg-audio... I read in some linux-dvb archives that you need a utility called "ts2es" (part of the old mpegtools) but that doesn't seam to exist in any modern DVB sources. Can anyone tell me how I can get the audio streaming to work, or where I can get a hold of these mpegtools? thanks in advance, Monty -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
