You need the CVS dvbtune I think (and therefore modules which implement the new dvb api) in order to set the correct error correction flags for each multiplex. This is the script I use to scan the Oxford transmitter (my local one): #!/bin/sh # Scan the UK DVB-T broadcasts from the Oxford transmitter # # USAGE: ./scan_ok-t.sh > channels.xml # ../xml2vdr channels.xml > channels.conf # # See http://www.linuxstb.org/dvb-t/ for instructions on how to find # the frequencies for your local transmitter. # # If you are a DVB-T user outside the UK, you will need to amend tune.c # with the detailed tuning parameters for your country. # NOTE: CHANGE CARD TO SUIT YOUR SYSTEM - FIRST CARD IS "0", SECOND IS "1" etc DVBTUNE=../dvbtune echo '<?xml version="1.0"?>' echo '<satellite>' $DVBTUNE -f 538000000 -cr 3_4 -qam 16 -i $DVBTUNE -f 578000000 -cr 3_4 -qam 16 -i $DVBTUNE -f 690000000 -cr 3_4 -qam 16 -i $DVBTUNE -f 713833333 -i $DVBTUNE -f 721833333 -cr 3_4 -qam 16 -i $DVBTUNE -f 850000000 -i echo '</satellite>' -- http://www.kantaka.co.uk/ .oOo. public key: http://www.kantaka.co.uk/gpg.txt -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
