help with dvbstream network streaming

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi people,

I have a dvb-s card, I got it working finally in ubuntu :) (more information about my hardware at the end of the mail, in case it is needed). I have been looking around for a good dvbstream tutorial, but haven't really found one, also the man page does not seem to be complete. I would like to stream from my some the machine with the dvb-s card to clients in the network and maybe also on the internet. 

I don't get how to specify the command I have tried several things, e.g.:
dvbstream -f 11567 -p v -s 22000 -D 0 -i 192.168.2.23 -r 1237

-f is the frequency in what? hz, mhz, ghz??
-p polarization, ok that's clear either horizontal or vertical
-s symbolrate also not clear on that, 
-D inidcated which LNB to use, no problem here
-i to what ip to send the stream?
-r the port on to send the stream

and what about 22khz tone how can i specify in dvbstream to turn it on or off

Here what I get when I execute the command above:

dvbstream -f 11567 -p v -s 22000 -D 0
dvbstream v0.6 - (C) Dave Chapman 2001-2004
Released under the GPL.
Latest version available from http://www.linuxstb.org/
Tuning to 11567 Hz
Using DVB card "ST STV0299 DVB-S", freq=11567
tuning DVB-S to Freq: 1817000, Pol:V Srate=22000000, 22kHz tone=off, LNB: 0
Setting only tone OFF and voltage 13V
DISEQC SETTING SUCCEDED
Getting frontend status
Not able to lock to the signal on the given frequency
dvbstream will stop after -1 seconds (71582788 minutes)
Using 224.0.1.2:5004:2
version=2
Streaming 0 streams

Why isn't it able to lock to the signal? I can watch the station on kaffeine or mplayer or xine...

I also don't understand the channels.conf file syntax completly, if someon could explain that as well, e.g.:

ARTE:11567:v:1:22000:167:136:9019     (same as the dvbstream command above)

channelname:frequency:polarization:???:symbolrate:???:???:????

I guess one is for the audio pid and one for video pid, but which ones and what about the other 2 remaining entries?

Also can I stream just one channel or more at the same time?

And I was wondering about my CI module, it is connected to the dvb-s card, can I check somehow that it is recognized and working? I don't have yet a cam or card...

OK that's it would be happy about some help or pointers to some tutorials or something, thx in advance,

from here on it's just hardware info about my machine...
thx jody :)



dvb-s card, Technotrend Premium S-2300 "modded", which is identical to Hauppauge Nexus-S 2.3, but with additional Features:
