Hi
Sorry I posted this before as HTML.
I've been having trouble tuning my twinhan VP-1025 with szap.
I have my dish pointed at echostar 119w and I get great reception with a set
top box 99% quality.
I'm running fedora core 3 kernel 2.6.12-1.1378_FC3 with a cvs version of the
dvb-v4l drivers I modified dst.c from udelay(1000); to mdelay(200); in
function dst_gpio_outb since it kept timing out with modprobe dvb_bt8xx.
I've created a channel.conf file with dvbscan and left only the info for
NASA in it since its not scrambled.
NASA:12370:v:0:20000:4130:4131:213
when I try and tune to this channel with szap using this command it doesn't
work
#./szap -l DBS -r -c channel.conf NASA
reading channels from file 'channel.conf'
zapping to 1 'NASA':
sat 0, frequency = 12370 MHz V, symbolrate 20000000, vpid = 0x1022, apid =
0x1023
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
status 1f | signal 4100 | snr 1500 | ber fffffffe | unc fffffffe |
FE_HAS_LOCK
status 1f | signal 4000 | snr 1500 | ber fffffffe | unc fffffffe |
FE_HAS_LOCK
status 1f | signal 4100 | snr 1500 | ber fffffffe | unc fffffffe |
FE_HAS_LOCK
status 1f | signal 4100 | snr 1500 | ber fffffffe | unc fffffffe |
FE_HAS_LOCK
status 1f | signal 3f00 | snr 1500 | ber fffffffe | unc fffffffe |
FE_HAS_LOCK
status 1f | signal 4100 | snr 1500 | ber fffffffe | unc fffffffe |
FE_HAS_LOCK
Needless to say there is no data being generated at /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0/
so I get nothing with I cat it to a file.
If I understand properly the signal strength of 4100 is not very good and
the snr of 1500 is also indicative of bad signal quality. But how can that
be if my settop says I have 99%
I've tried connecting the dish directly to the card and through my settop
box, I'm not using a Diseq so thats not it.
Any help would get appreciated.
