Post subject: | Explain QAM/channels.conf and mythconverg/channel to me.... |
I've got a new Knoppmyth installation that has MythTV 0.20. I'm using this with a pchd3000. I've found a couple stations that work on my cable provider but other that are also unencrypted I can't get working. I'm trying to understand if I'm missing something in my mythconverg/channel table or if something else is wrong. Using old instructions I created a channels.conf file of stations that I got a lock on when I did: dvbscan atsc/us-Cable-Standard-center-frequencies-QAM256 I then pared that down to anything that showed video when I did: mencoder -v dvb://[] -o test.mpg -oac copy -ovc lavc I then looked up the found frequency from channels.conf in the dtv_multiplex table, plugged that into the channel I want to use. I updated the sourceid, frequency and all sorts of things in the channel table but can't get MythTv to tune to any of my added channels. Any tricks I should know? Thanks! |

Search around in the Gossamer boards (Mythtv.org), has been changes in MythTV .20 in regard to channel scanning and how it works. These 2 are good resources from MythTV WIKI. http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Ad ... /Canada%29 http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Wo ... ble_layout This is a good thread that deals with it well (more MythTV .19 based though) http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic. ... t=qam+scan |
