Re: [Freevo-users] Television Problem: No show, but mplayer command fine
Hi If I set DEBUG=1 I can see the tv output, the only difference in the command call below is poll=-1 instead of poll=256. However, it displays mplayer in a separate window and essentially ignores the full screen mode, as the rest of the screen goes black but the image size stays the same.

[Freevo-users] Possibly stupid question
Hello everyone. Before I ask this question, I want to say that I've searched linuxtv.org, the archives for this mailing list, google, and a few other digital cable related websites, and I couldn't find an answer. Doesn't mean it's not out there, just that I couldn't find it. So, here's the question. Are there any tuner cards out there that work with digital cable in the US? I have Adelphia cable in the Buffalo area, and get a bunch of channels on digital cable, so I don't want to build a box that doesn't support digital cable. From what I've found, there are a ton of cards that support European digital cable, but I haven't been able to find any information either way for the US. Thanks in advance, and I'm sorry for the basic/stupid question.

Re: [Freevo-users] Possibly stupid question
Let me start out by saying; I know bits and pieces of info, so I might not be 100% correct (or even 10%). You can receive a digital signal with alot of the available cards but I believe that the US cable companies haven't opened up the system to allow them actually decode the signal. So you will still need to fork the signal through the cable box first unless you are using an HD antenna.On 3/26/06, Rick Seiden [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello everyone.Before I ask this question, I want to say that I've searched linuxtv.org, the archives for this mailing list, google, and a few otherdigital cable related websites, and I couldn't find an answer.Doesn'tmean it's not out there, just that I couldn't find it.So, here's the question.Are there any tuner cards out there that work with digital cable in the US?I have Adelphia cable in the Buffaloarea, and get a bunch of channels on digital cable, so I don't want tobuild a box that doesn't support digital cable.

Not entirely accurate -- I know that Rogers here in Canada offer the same channels digitally as they offer in their analog package unencrypted so you can pick them up with the right card. North America use ATSC for its digital signal so look for a card that supports ATSC. I don't think VDR supports a ATSC plugin, but I do know that MythTV does. Don't know about Freevo natively. N
Re: [Freevo-users] Possibly stupid question
The only cards i have found that work in the USA only receive non encrypted over the air HDTV. To get it to work with cable in the USA you have to go thru the digital tv box. Unfortuneately all the standards for digital TV in the USA are not open. Story maybe different in Canada, might want to wait for Rshortt's response on that. I have been looking at getting my hdtv card to work with Freevo but it currently requires xine and some heavy kernel config. Not very easy to use at the moment, to the point i am compiling a seperate xine just for the HDTV tuner. ALso the card i have requires help from the video card so you might have to buy them in a pair. the card i have is from http://www.pchdtv.com/ and i got the HD 3000. -- Michael Ruelle [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Sun, 2006-03-26 at 14:01 -0500, Rick Seiden wrote: Hello everyone.

Re: [Freevo-users] Television Problem: No show, but mplayer command fine
Michele- This sounds like a scaling issue. For some reason mplayer is not scaling up the image to full screen. This could be becuase it is not getting the scale command or mabe the X server does not know how to adjsut teh display resolution to fit. That black box is mplayer attempting to display in fullsrceen.
