John,
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
This is all fine.

Stopping.
2005-05-30 12:53:07.423 DBOX#1: Recorder now offline. Reactivating EPG scan
I suspect that the last the "TS header at 42" line might contain the
clue. Can anyone shed any light on this?
Nope, "TS header at 42" is just a report, that the parser found a valid
TS header at position 42 (instead of 0) and resyncs itself. It's not an
error condition.
The next part is more interesting: "Couldn't read data from the capture
card in 15
seconds."
It seems your dbox does not return any data. Please make sure it runs in SPTS
mode and has a recent image. (I recommend yadi-2.x). Also make sure your ucodes
are up to date.
Sidenode to Andrew:
Im not sure what else to suggest, wish I could be of more help. Maybe the
author can be of some help, not sure what has happened to him though, its
been over a week since his last post.
I'm alive, nothing happened to me, just a bit too much work, Andrew ;)
I will purchuse a real DBOX2 soon so I can record 2 channels at once, then I
will be able to help some more. What brand/model are better ?
Well, if you have a choice - and ask me - stick with the dreambox. A
100MBit/s NIC is just too nice to have ;) If you still decide to buy a
DBox, I think the ones from Philips and Sagem are more stable than those
from Nokia.
Bye,
Lev.
Andrew.
