If the channel is encrypted, this is precisely what you will observe ... though, because this is over-the-air that we're talking about, this seems less likely to be the case (but you will have to confirm nonetheless). I'm more inclined to think that this is related to an issue with stream identifiers. Is Sweden using MP4 now? Some further questions, what drivers are you using (distro or recent LinuxTV)? What dvb-apps ... Christophe had updated the dvb-apps not to long ago with some changes in regards to MP4 streams (can't remember the exact nature, but perhaps you should grab a new copy from LinuxTV and try with those). _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
