Re: [vdr] US OTA ATSC - Does it work?
I have not thought about how to do it as yet. I was hoping to ask here as I am sure someone has a homerun going with VDR. BTW - I got one US ATSC channel to tune with help from Alex. He modified one of my w_scan channel output and it worked perfectly. From: WESH-DT:201028615:8VSB:49:52:3 To: WESH-DT:201028615:B6M10:T:0:49:0;52:0:0:3:0:565:0 Timothy D.

Yes, unfortunately I have 2 ATSC PCI cards and will be adding a HDHomeRun dual tuner, so I will have 4 ATSC tuners. If if does not work with more than one, then this will be a problem. Timothy D.

Re: [vdr] US OTA ATSC - Does it work?
yes, I did that and all the scans are failing from within the plugin therefore it does not produce a file for me to copy the lines into the channels.conf file of VDR. Timothy D.

Re: [vdr] US OTA ATSC - Does it work?
To get a channel scan for atsc, best thing is to go into the plugins setup for the atsc plugin. use the scan there. Then go to the plugin config folder for atsc plugin and copy the data to your chanels.conf.

Re: [vdr] US OTA ATSC - Does it work?
I am able to tune channels using 'scan' and 'w_scan' tools. The built-in ATSC EPG channel scanner (which I believe has a static list of frequencies in the '.h' file) fails to find any channels.
