Hello, I installed libxine-dvb and now I can watch the channels from channels.conf with xine!! The picture quality ist very bad. It looks like the signal quality is very bad. I see a lot of mpeg blocks. With the Twinhan tool under Windows the picture quality is perfect. Am I the only one with this problem? I downloaded the latest daily rpm from Kaffeine. I can't find a way to watch dvb channels with Kaffeine. I see only dvd or cd options in the menus. After looking at http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Dvbtools I found out that the scan binary you were talking about is the same tool as dvbscan I am using. The parameters you gave for the scan utility are for dvb-c. I am using a 1034 card with dvb-s. So I don't think those parameters are going to work with my card :) Op zaterdag 4 november 2006 14:48, schreef Marko Ristola: > Hi Joep, > > Scanning with Kaffeine works for me now also :) > > Ealier Livna repository Kaffeine didn't support > setting QAM128.
