You have been subscribed to a public bug: DVBStreamer is a Linux application to stream a service from an off-air DVB transport stream over UDP. http://dvbstreamer.sourceforge.net/
What makes DVBStreamer different from similar applications? First of all DVBStreamer streams the entire service, that includes the PCR PID which some other applications assume is embedded in the video or audio packets. Secondly the channels.conf file produced by the linuxtv.org scan application is only used to initialise the list of services and multiplexes, the PID values in file are not used. Instead the SI in the transport stream is monitored and updated when the PAT and PMT tables are updated. Finally DVBStreamer only retunes to a multiplex, if when switching services the new service is on a different multiplex. This speeds up channel change quite considerably. --- This application should not be confused with another application with similar name: "dvbstream" (which is already in universe): http://www.t2-project.org/packages/dvbstream.html ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Wishlist Assignee: MOTU Status: Confirmed ** Tags: needs-packaging -- [needs-packaging] dvbstreamer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103219 -- universe-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
