I know about this thread, I have already "contributed" to it. At least, it seems that 
it is really a problem with v4l2.

The provider scan gave me the french channel TV5, which delivers program information 
in french.

Ok, as soon as I have solved this, I will post it here. 
At the moment, this is not first priority for me. My box stops the nxtvepg daemon 
right before recording something and restarts it afterwards. The only problem is 
watching TV, for which I prefer to use my TV set directly. (Perhaps this will 
change...)

Kind regards,
Thorsten

I'm using V4L, and I can't reproduce your problem.
But searching on the nxtvepg homepage I found something:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1009667&forum_id=217872

This is written in german. I don't know if non-german tv-station also
broadcast a epg via cable which is usable for nxtvepg. But when it
is so (please give me feedback) I'll translate it and update the wiki.
Otherwise I'll only add the link to the wiki.

Thorsten, because I'm not using V4L2 I can't try it, but if it works for you
please give some feedback.

[Freevo-users] nxtvepg keeps switching channels...

2004-01-28 Thread Pferdekaemper, Thorsten
Hi,
I am using nxtvepg to create the XMLTV listings for freevo. I am doing this roughly as 
described in 
  http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/GermanXmltvGuide
I also have a cron job which dumps the nxtvepg databases into TV.xml. I am pretty 
convinced that this is a really good idea, because freevo is connected to the TV cable 
anyway, but it is not connected to the internet. (At least, I do not want my computer 
surfing in the web while I am not watching it...)

It seems that the nxtvepg daemon switches channels while I am watching TV or while a 
recording is running. The documentation of nxtvepg says, that it won't do that, but...
Perhaps this is because I am using V4L2. Anyway, I have inserted the line
nxtvepg -daemonstop 
in my recording script before the actual mencoder command. Afterwards, I restart the 
daemon with
nxtvepg -daemon.
This works and can easily be implemented without modifying freevo code, but I have not 
found any way how to do this for watching TV. I could insert some modifications in 
/tv/plugins/mplayer.py, but this is not really what I want to do...

Regards,
Thorsten
