Hi all, I've just conducted a little test using the de-Sachsen-Anhalt scan file. As expected, only 3 lines actually worked (those muxes transmitted from Mt. Brocken). The line for 498 Mhz (Ch24 Halle-Saale), which is T 498000000 8MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/4 NONE # CH24: Das Erste, arte, Phoenix, EinsFestival does actually tune to the Ch 24 from Braunschweig, but fails to recognize the stations there, because of QAM64: >>> tune to: 498000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_AUTO:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_4:HIERARCHY_NONE WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0011 WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0000 WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0010 Using the correct setting of QAM16 gives: using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' >>> tune to: 498000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_AUTO:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_4:HIERARCHY_NONE 0x0000 0x4015: pmt_pid 0x0150 RTL World -- RTL Television (running) 0x0000 0x4016: pmt_pid 0x0160 RTL World -- RTL2 (running) 0x0000 0x4017: pmt_pid 0x0170 RTL World -- Super RTL (running) 0x0000 0x4022: pmt_pid 0x0220 RTL World -- VOX (running) Both testes 10 times....
