Hi,
Hi David, list,
I try to get an external USB DVB-S Box from Typhoon working with my linux
server.
OK.
The USB-Box is the one from
http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB_USB#TwinhanDTV_StarBox_-_DVB-S
I'm using a vanilla linux 2.6.15.5 kernel.
Here is the output of dmesg:

So far, everything looks good.
Yes indeed.
But I'm not able to record a dvb-stream with mplayer:

Try "tzap -r station" where "station" is a name from your channels.conf
file.
Without the "-r" option, there is just tuning, but nothing will be
received (there is no output for you to record).
Any hints?

David
