Hi all,
Thanks for that Andrew. I'm gradually gaining a
greater understanding of
what's going on. I suspect that the reason that I'm
not having much
success might have something to do with the versions
of Neutrino I've
been trying. I'm guessing that this patch is not
compatible with either
Sportster 1.61 or Next-Generation g5401. What
version of Neutrino are
you running?
mythbackend is successfully doing the following:
1. Retrieves the channel list
2. Works out which from the channel list which
channel ID matches the
default channel I've given it.
3. Switches channel (on the dbox) to the default
channel that I've given it.
4. When not in WatchingTV mode, polls the small
group of channels I've
listed in mythsetup
Things go wrong when it tries to grab the TS stream.
I've verified by
querying the web interface myself that the pids it
retrieves are right.
This is what I get in the mythbackend.log file:

I suspect that the last the "TS header at 42" line

clue. Can anyone shed any light on this?
Cheers,
John

Hi all,
I've managed to build Myth with this patch, but
cannot get the channels
working. I've added my Dbox2 as a capture card,
I've created a Video
Source and added just one channel to it. I then
associated the Dbox to
this video sources in the "Input Connections"
section. The Dbox is has
spts turned "on".
When I open mythfrontend, and "Watch TV" I see
flashes of the channel
currently selected on the Dbox. It occasionally
shows a few frames of
jerky video and freezes again. Maybe it's
constantly trying to switch
channel and failing? I'm must be missing something
really obvious, but I
can't see what. How am I supposed to generate a
valid channel list? Can
anyone help?
Thanks,
John

In the channel editor in mythtv-setup, the channel
name must be exactly as it
appears on the dbox2, including case. The channel
number must much the
channel name on the dbox2, the frequency id on the
seccond page of the
channel editor must have the same number as the
channel on the dbox2.
The callsign can be whatever you want, im not sure
if the channel number must
be the same as on the dbox2 but I know the
frequency id must be, I just set
both to the same number.
I have it working reasonably well, but sometimes I
get no picture after a
channel change, exiting and re entering live tv
brings it back.
Hope this helps.
Andrew.
