[Freevo-users] Problem with recording HDTV
Hi all, I have a problem with recording HDTV in Australia. When I select a HD channel I have no audio and so only a vido stream is vailable. I have checked from the command line and it appears to be a problem with mplayer as xine works ok. I have included the local_conf for referance as I also have a problem in that it saves the files with avi extension instead of ts, how can I change that? here is a dump from mplayer trying to view a HD channel. mplayer "dvb://One HD Newcastle" -ao alsa MPlayer SVN-r29463-4.3.2 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team Playing dvb://One HD Newcastle. dvb_tune Freq: 69050 TS file format detected.
