[linux-dvb] Command line dvb tuning utilities

2007-11-09 Thread Simon Hargreaves
What dvb tuning command line utilities are there for linux at the 
moment? The options I have a zap, but this does not tune to a service ID 
it requires specified video and audio pids, or dvbtune which although 
will tune into a service id it doesn't set the dvr0 device up for TS 
recording as well as locking the device so no other process can access 
it. My programme is set up to do recording directly from the dvr0 data 
stream, this used to work on my old kernel version but since updating my 
system to use 2.6.22 it now longer appears to work.
The only options appear to be coding my own command line interface to 
the dvb device, but I'd rather not reinvent the wheel.

dvbstream from cvs can tune and dump/stream individual programs

You can take a look at 

zap: http://linuxtv.org/hg/dvb-apps/file/bd51e3321c05/util/zap/
or gnutv: http://linuxtv.org/hg/dvb-apps/file/bd51e3321c05/util/gnutv/

whether it fits in.

 or gnutv: http://linuxtv.org/hg/dvb-apps/file/bd51e3321c05/util/gnutv/

   
gnutv does look very close what I want, it gives a wide range of options 
for setting up TS recording and enabling the output of an onboard mpeg 
decoder which is perfect. Unfortunately I need TS recording and video 
output from the the onboard decoder at the same time, which it doesn't 
seem to do.
I've looked through the source code for gnutv but can't find where it 
sets the device up for hardware decoding. If I could find it I would be 
able to set it up an additional option to do both, but I can't find 
where it does device control.

Thanks

gnutv and zap, both uses the small libs in the dvb-apps tree.

I use zapdvb to tune and record DVB stream.
No more maintained but useful for my little use in that state.

What are you using for EPG grabbing? Or for subtitles grabbing. I found
something called 'dvbsubs', but maybe there is something else?
