The stream contains information where to find the other transponders (just that you can't really rely on it as it's sometimes wrong). So 554 comes from the initial scan file and 553.833 from the network information tables in the stream. > Furthermore both > $ dvbstream -f 554000 600 601 > and > $ dvbstream -f 553833 600 601 > Work for BBC ONE. > > So now that I have two frequencies I can use for most channels I wonder > which I should use? Is there any advantage of one over the other? Why > broadcast the same stream twice? It's only broadcasted once (on 553.833). But many cards / drivers (unfortunately not all, that's why I committed a corrected version) can still find the transponder if the supplied frequency is somewhat near the real frequency. > Regards, > > Nigel Christoph _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
