Hi,
I bought a Pinnacle PCTV 400e DVB-S external (USB) TV Tuner a few days
go and am currently trying to get it working with my Gentoo Linux.
Under Windows it works great (SNR 100%).
But under Linux I get, according to kaffeine, a really bad signal
quality - about 20% to 30%. A screenshot from the picture I get can be
found on http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/4075/screenshotzm0.png
If I manually zap to a channel (szap) and do 'mplayer
/dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0' (My DVB device), I am getting the same picture.
szap outputs:
reading channels from file '.szap/channels.conf'
zapping to 1090 'Das Erste':
sat 0, frequency = 11836 MHz H, symbolrate 27500000, vpid = 0x0065, apid
= 0x0066 sid = 0x6dca
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
