analogTV 'channel not available'

Love to but I deleted them from vdr already.  I don't know if FFMPEG was
actually doing anything because I couldn't get anything to show -- it
was encoding.. what who knows.  I'm in Canada btw -- is that the same
area?

I have a Hauppauge WinTV to GO card -- basic analog no encoder and not
supported by ivtv.  Apparently its much easier if you have a card
supported by ivtv.

I've made some changes to the above that I used to get some output.  I
also use C0 rather then C12 but that varies depending on your card.  
You also need to put in a frequency instead of the '4'.  I don't recall
the program I used to get them but I know xawtv will show them as well.

When you run VDR at the console, you should see it trying to start
ffmpeg -- does it give you an error? I also had issue where the plugin
had configured PAL resolutions and no NTSC resolutions so FFMPEG had
issues with the mixed command line for NTSC but a PAL resolution that
was incompatible.  It involved modifying the source code to get it past
that point.  If this is the blocker, it should give you an error in the
vdr output though...

Also, did you apply all the recommended patches from the vdr wiki page?
I use the German pages because the english ones are way out of date for
most of the plugins.
