Thanks
I try to explain what i need to do using python.
The base data are:
DVB-S
Frequency 11977
pid 1296 Sky Italy ECM pid
Polarization Horizontal
symbol rate 27500
If i understand right at first i have to setup the front end is it
correct?
Locking dvb-3 api for dvb-s frontend i have the follow params:
struct dvb_frontend_parameters {
uint32_t frequency; /* (absolute) frequency in Hz for
QAM/OFDM */
/* intermediate frequency in kHz for
QPSK */
fe_spectral_inversion_t inversion;
union {
struct dvb_qpsk_parameters qpsk;
struct dvb_qam_parameters qam;
struct dvb_ofdm_parameters ofdm;
} u;
};
For satellite QPSK frontends you have to use the QPSKParameters member
defined by
struct dvb_qpsk_parameters {
uint32_t symbol_rate; /* symbol rate in Symbols per
second */
fe_code_rate_t fec_inner; /* forward error correction (see
above) */
};
freq = 119.770000
feparams = {"symbol_rate" : 27500,
}
I stop just here i heve made no more code because i have the error,
so i don't continue.
Now my idea is ,today when i'm at home i write this small script and i
see the output and the i post here so we can have a new idea.
#include <linux/dvb/frontend.h>
struct dvb_frontend_info info;
int fd;
if ((fd = open ("/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0", O_RDWR)) < 0) {
perror ("open failed");
return -1;
}
ioctl (fd, FE_GET_INFO, &info);
