Yes, this is one of the nice spinoffs of using DVB. I have it sync the clock on bootup and in a daily cron job. Works perfectly, You need to tune first though. Do something like: #!/bin/bash # Tune DVB adapter if nobody else is already doing so: # I have a channel called Q. I think it's a radio station. It's handy to type :-) if [ -z `fuser /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0` ] ; then tzap Q & dvbdate --set kill $! else dvbdate --set fi _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list mythtv-dev@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
