Hi Hartmut,

Apologies for the length of this msg, I'm not sure what info you may
need, so I'm trying to show you that all is not right.

1) New install of ubuntu 7.10 i386.

2) Install Me-tv, Tvtime.
Me-tv, in the absence of a channels.conf, scans
via /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t

3) I placed au-Perth_roleystone
into /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t:

# Australia / Perth (Roleystone transmitter)
# T freq bw fec_hi fec_lo mod transmission-mode guard-interval hierarchy
# SBS
T 704500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
# ABC
T 725500000 7MHz 3/4 NONE QAM64 8k 1/16 NONE
# Seven
T 746500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/16 NONE
# Nine

# Ten
T 788500000 7MHz 3/4 NONE QAM64 8k 1/16 NONE

4) Started Me-tv
Here is the output of Me-tv as it does it's first scan:

Failed to tune to transponder at 704500000      (Yet I'm viewing SBS on a
diff box!)

5) I then started Me-tv.
Here is the message it gave me:

Failed to open video stream: No demux plugin

6) I installed Kaffeine.
I placed au-Perth_roleystone into kaffeine.
This is the channels.dvb created by kaffeine:
#Generated by Kaffeine 0.5

That's correct - zero!
Kaffeine failed to scan anything.

7) Now I started Tvtime, commenced the channel scan, it failed to find
any channel!

8) Back to Kaffeine. No channels found!

9) Back to Me-tv, delete channels.conf.
Starts to scan, it very quickly jumps out with this message:

There are no usable channels in the channels.conf file

10) Reboot.

14) Again exactly same result as last time with dvb, analog.

15) With this refactoring, do the app developers have to adjust
anything? Tzap has problems also.

This actually worse than before, it is now not tuning correctly.
What do I try next? Very frustrating.
Do you want any debug options?

PS. I've actually managed to get the remote to work through a very
convoluted approach via the archives (Hermann), using ir-kbd-i2c.c,
saa7134-i2c.c. But it's no use unless we can fix this tuning/scanning
issue.

Tim
