i think that my channels.conf contains valid data. here is the entry for BBC One BBC ONE:641833330:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_3_4:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:600:601:4173 when i tzap i get this [root@mythtv_linux ~]# tzap "BBC ONE" using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' tuning to 641833330 Hz video pid 0x0258, audio pid 0x0259 status 00 | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | FE_HAS_LOCK it is using the correct frequency and pids. i have checked the box when it is in stb mode and the information (fec etc) within channels.conf is correct. also since the box has a scart connection i can see that it does actually change to the correct channel. from this i assume that the tuning is correct (can actually see a clear picture and has a lock) but for some reason it is not sending any data to the pc. any other ideas?

Scan can have a lot of false positives. It doesn't weed out the frequencies that have locks but don't have video, the video is encrypted, etc. Matt On 3/15/07, Tom Jacobs <tom.jacobs@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > i am having problems getting data from my STB > > i am using Mythdora as my distro so, i believe this is basically Fedora > Core 5 with MythTV-0.20 included (and various other required packages). > > i have a Hauppauge DEC2000 stb which i am trying to use within mythtv. > the correct firmware is in /lib/firmware and from dmesg i can see the > adapter and frontend are both registered. > > i can successfully ./scan for available channels and have produced my > channels.conf file. when i ./tzap i get the following: > > [root@mythtv_linux ~]# tzap -r "BBC TWO" > using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' > tuning to 641833330 Hz > video pid 0x0262, audio pid 0x0263 > status 00 | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | > status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | > FE_HAS_LOCK > status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | > FE_HAS_LOCK > status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | > FE_HAS_LOCK > status 1f | signal 0000 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 009c645e | > FE_HAS_LOCK > > if i pick different channels the frequency an pids change but i always > get signal 0000 and a lock. if i try and capture stream using the following: > > cat /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 > myvideo.mpg > > i get a file of zero bytes. if i try and use mplayer or xine they both > fail too. since this is a stb also i can play a scart cable into it and > i do see that the channels are being changed when i tzap but i just > dont seem to be getting any data back from the stb. > > does anyone have any ideas? > > _______________________________________________ > linux-dvb mailing list > linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx > http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb > _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
