How can I tell myth to identify 82-1 and 82-2 as two channels?
I am unable to locate information on this on in the archive and
http://www.digitalregime.com/mythdvb/setup/ provides no assistance on


this.


I don't have a 3k card, I have an Air2PC, However, I would expect this
to be the same.

In mythtv-setup, run a DVB-scan. It will then add the channels, likely
as 821 and 822. You can either leave it that way (which makes entering
channels MUCH easier) or you can change it, like I did, so I have to
co-exist with non-HD channels, to 82_1 and 82_2 in the list. It's
impossible to hand enter without a real keyboard, but they show up
consecutively in the list, and I can flip through them..


That's the problem. The scan fails to tune any channel. It locks on all the
Digital channels but reports "failed to tune" or a timed out message then
proceeds to the next channel.

Dvbstream works just fine with capturing the TS and dtvstream will split
them by program. However this negates the purpose of the PVR. Granted my
pvr-350 is working fine for the analog channels.
I'm hoping someone can help me by telling me how to enter the channels
manually or point me to a patch that will allow me to select PID's in
setup..
Even thou I am using the DVB driver and using DVB as the input type myth
says that the card is using video for linux and will not diplay the DVB
setup page. The VL page where I can manually enter the frequency for the
channel lacks places to designate PID's all it has is the Freq and color
contrast brightness etc adjustments.

In other words I do not get to see these pages

I think quite a few of us working with the hd3000 are having the same
problem and are looking for solutions.  I've posted both here and in
the hd3000 forum but it seems like no one has been able to find a
solution to this problem yet.  I haven't posted to myth-dev yet, but
maybe thats the place where we may find someone who knows the answer
to our question, as i think it is a problem with how mythtvsetup is
handling the hd3000-dvb.  For example,  when i run dvbscan -cvvv no
channel information is given, but i've seen examples with OTA ATSC
streams where channel information is explicitly supplied in the
stream. Mythtv may be looking for this and since it doesn't come
through, myth assumes the channels are 'unable to tune'.

Have you been able to successfully tune the frequencies using azap? (get the instructions for installing it here: http://www.rsmas.miami.edu/personal/angel/mythtv/air2pc-howto.html)


You might try just getting your card to successfully tune the channels, and as a worst case scenario, use the frequencies reported by azap for your channels in the DVB Transports section of the MythTV configuration.

But first, just to rule out problems with your driver setup, you need to make sure azap works.
