I have already done that. The documentation is not entirely clear on how to set the channel information, but I used ptune.pl to first dump a list of PAL europe-west channels, and then using it to set each and every channel and test them with mplayer /dev/video0. I arrived at this list, which works well with mplayer: SE19 NRK 1 E8 NRK 2 E10 TV 2 SE11 TV Norge E5 TV Budstikka (ABTV) SE15 TV 3 SE16 TV 4 E7 SVT 1 E11 SVT 2 SE8 Discovery SE7 Cartoon Network SE17 Star / Showtime SE10 Info SE14 Disney Channel SE20 BBC World SE13 The Voice SE18 Eurosport SE9 Animal Planet This is part of what mythfilldatabase has entered into mysql: mysql> select chanid,channum,name,xmltvid from channel order by chanid; +--------+---------+-------------------+------------------------+ | chanid | channum | name | xmltvid | +--------+---------+-------------------+------------------------+ | 1 | SE19 | NRK 1 | 1.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 2 | E8 | NRK 2 | 2.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 3 | E10 | TV 2 | 3.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 4 | SE11 | TVNorge | 5.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 6 | SE15 | TV 3 | 4.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 7 | SE16 | TV 4 | 37.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 8 | E7 | SVT 1 | 6.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 9 | E11 | SVT 2 | 7.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 10 | SE8 | Discovery Channel | 44.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 11 | SE7 | Cartoon | 41.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 14 | SE14 | Disney | 67.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 15 | SE20 | BBC World | 38.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 17 | SE18 | Eurosport | 15.fredag.dagbladet.no | | 18 | SE9 | Animal Planet | 10.fredag.dagbladet.no | +--------+---------+-------------------+------------------------+ 14 rows in set (0.00 sec) Now, is there something wrong here? > WAF was low until I got my box up as well.

Nice to hear :) I can of course get away with one shell script for each channel, like this: #! /bin/bash # BBC World ptune.pl SE20 mplayer -fs /dev/video0 but I figure that Myth will get a better WAF rating. -- Leif Biberg Kristensen http://solumslekt.org/ _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
