IMHO MythTV split backend/frontend with a prof 7301 or similar is far superior to most set-tops on the market today. Only exception here being the hardware blindscan which I think is only a matter of time before Linux drivers mature enough to support the capabilities of these newer card. MythTV...

This is a good point. The GEOSATpro 36" Dish does not have U-bolt mounts but a cylindrical clamp with screws, would not likely fit the 55mm post on the SG-9120, so likely to be more trouble than it's worth. Looks like I'll be going with a SG-2100. Thanks!:)

Hi all, I currently have a a GEOSATpro 36" Dish static setup and am considering moving to a motorized system. I was looking through Moteck SG-2100s on Ebay and also came across a heavy duty version model Powermax SG-9120, priced fairly comparatively. The Powermax SG-9120 claims to have metal...

So I did manage to compile w_scan and give it a shot. Just had to replace the header files at /usr/include/linux/dvb with the latest from the V4L source to compile successfully. I ran it with the following options, "w_scan -cUS -fs -s S97W0 -l STANDARD -x" and it gave me a few more stations to...

Thanks, this is what I thought. Reading through the newer V4L wiki, which is much more readable than the old, I guess I should be using w_scan first to generate this. No problem, I'll give DVB-S2 a shot once I have DVB-S working reliably, I guess it must fall back to the older multiproto API...

Thanks much, here's the tuning data file I'm using for the scan, does this look right or is it missing a bunch of stuff for Galaxy 19? # Galaxy 19 @ 97W # freq pol sr fec S 11789000 V 28125000 AUTO S 11836000 V 20770000 AUTO S 11867000 V 22000000 AUTO S 11874000 H 22000000 AUTO S 11898000 V...

Hi all, so I've taken the plunge into the world of FTA satellite and have come a long way as of a few weeks ago when I didn't know what FTA stood for. :) This is my first post here so bear with me. This weekend I got my setup tuned for the very first time and was ecstatic when I was able to...
