Howdy. I'm afraid that your posting is horribly unclear, with the apparently important information present in the Subject: header, as such: ``Subject : Re: CH???, Bandwidth 8MHz, Fec_Hi 1/2, Modulation QAM64, Mode 8K, Guard 1/4, fails to tune\demux'' I'm going to go out on a limb and ass-u-me that you are writing to ask about the DVB-H multiplex which is broadcast by SBC on several different allocated SFN frequencies throughout Confœderatio Helvetica. The DVB-T services use a more conventional FEC of 5/6 in a denser network of transmitters. Note that these frequencies are partly re-used in areas where it is possible to receive simultaneously the out-of-area DVB-T signals on the same frequency, which renders both impossible to receive, in spite of a healthy signal strength. I don't know if this might affect you. Not only is this multiplex sent in DVB-H standard, but it is also a subscription service. Therefore at best you can read the PIDs corresponding to the various services, but you aren't going to be able to watch anything, as different utilities may come to terms with the datastreams in different ways. Most Linux utilities likely don't know anything of the DVB-H parsing needed for this service. Note that I want to verify that this multiplex uses the more robust QAM16 along with 1/2 FEC rather than the QAM64 you have given, in order to permit best operation in diverse terrain, but I can't find my parse results from the datastream amongst my active disks. In any case, you can try this tuning option to see if you get a lock. In order to receive these broadcasts, you will need to be a subscriber to this service -- I suggest that you get in touch with your nearest Swisscom to point you at the provider, though Sunrise or Orange or anyone else can probably point you to the provider of this service, who is unknown to me. I doubt you will achieve any Linux-based satisfaction here. If this is not that to which you refer, then please re-formulate your question in a less ambiguous and more geographically-specific way, and sorry that I've wasted your time. thanks, barry bouwsma On Fri, 20 Nov 2009, g_remlin wrote: > 02:09.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01) > Subsystem: Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH Technotrend-Budget/Hauppauge > WinTV-NOVA-T DVB card > Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 17 > Memory at e3001000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512] > Kernel driver in use: budget dvb > Kernel modules: budget > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
