I have the latest tune-s2 (bb391...) and to get it to compile I changed DTV_DVBS2_MIS_ID to DTV_STREAM_ID in tune-s2.c and commented out DC-II, C-QPSK etc in tune-s2.h. Here are the results I get, first for a DVB-S channel (PBS on AMC1): tune-s2 4091 V 14029 -lnb CBAND LNB: low: -5150 high: 0...

First of all Kyle, your startup messages look good to me. All the right things are in the kernel, and everything gets started like it should. You should be able to tune something at that point, if the dish is aimed correctly. I am getting the same messages you are. The firmware I have is the...

Updatelee, the pids have indeed changed, they are now 101 and 256. Lyngsat and the Montana PBS home page both show the old pids, 33 and 38. Now, with "demux -pids 101 256" I can get a file created (that is not empty), however mplayer still cannot read it, it tries to play it as MPEG2 when in...

Try this: Tune to Montana PBS (12110 V 2398) with tune-s2 or szap-s2. Run: demux -pids 8192 You should get a file created with the transport stream. Now run: demux -pids 33 38 (these are the actual pids it uses) You will get an empty file. This is the same problem that dvbstream has. I...

I just purchased a Prof 7500 and I have it up and running under linux. I run Zenwalk 6.4 and have the 2.6.36 (latest stable) kernel. This is to summarize some of my experiences. I initially made a mistake with the driver, since the Prof uses the STV0903 I thought it needed the STV090x driver...

To DVBWorld.... on the 2006 pci-e card, there appears to be a s-video jack, but there is no mention of the use of the jack. Could you confirm that this is in fact a s-video input? I would like to be able to plug the output from my vcr (YES, I still have one!) into this, and play videos on the...

Yes, I use a program called xdipo to move it, available here: satellite It has a gui interface, and requires xforms to be installed.

OK, here is the channels.conf for AMC21: Estrella_EST-CST:12010:h:0:7161:301:302:3 Estrella_Pacific:12010:h:0:7161:401:402:4 PBS-HD01:12142:v:0:30000:49:52:3 PBS-HD02:12142:v:0:30000:65:68:4 PBS-HD03:12180:v:0:30000:49:52:3 PBS-HD04:12154:h:0:14029:49:52:3 PBS-Montana:12108:v:0:4340:33:38:2...

I have channels.conf files for 13 KU band satellites visible in the USA, and I'd be happy to share, just not sure how to do that. G19 is huge, over 150 channels, and they're changing them all the time. I don't use mythtv, I just have some shell scripts in a folder tree that tune in the channels.

I am using a 31" (80cm) Fortec Star, it's the one in my icon. My LNBF is an Invacom SNH-031. It's mounted on my (flat) roof, with an unobstructed view to the south. I wanted to use as small a dish as I could get away with because we have high winds in this area and I wanted as little load on my...

This is wonderful news. I've been looking online for a while, and the PCIe 2005 looks like a pretty good card, and has good Linux support. Pendragon, so far as I know, the PCIe card also has the 24116 chip. It will be a couple of months or so before I get my order in, but I'm looking forward...

My receiver card will not receive MPEG4 so I can't say for certain, but I'm pretty sure you could record the transport stream just as if it was MPEG2. Mencoder can record MPEG4, it's just a case of specifying the right codec. I've used Xvid in the past. The thing to watch in all cases is the...

The easiest way is just to record the transport stream directly. I am using a combination of dvbstream and mplayer. I have shell scripts set up that look like this for just watching: #!/bin/sh dvbstream -f 12140 -p v -s 30000 -v 49 -a 52 -o | mplayer -ao alsa -vo xv -fs -vf pp=lb - and this...

I have tried PBS-HD, and actually watch it a lot. The script for that is slightly different, in that you don't have to do the crop and scale. I don't think that scripts make much difference to system resources. If you have, say, kplayer, running, it will take up a bit of memory but all the cpu...

I have been using kplayer and kaffeine for watching dvb-s programming, but recently I switched to a simpler system using mplayer, dvbstream, and shell scripts. I have a shell script for watching, and another for recording, for each channel. Icons on the desktop point to the folders containing...

I have 245 at the moment, all Ku, all TV, all FTA. I go around through the birds every now and then, just to see what's there, but about 99.9% of the time the dish is pointing at AMC21. I also can depend on my setup being just as I left it...another single guy here. A diet of pizza and beer is...

Pendragon, thanks for the information you have provided. I am using xdipo to move my dish, but have had a couple of problems with it. First, the "Goto Angle" command does not work with any satellite west of my location (108.3W). To go to a satellite west of me, such as AMC21, I have to tweak...

I still haven't seen anything definate on where to buy the DW2005, or how much it will cost. Is this too early in the process? Also, I see that the DW2004 is supported by kernel 2.6.28 (which I am running now). Does this support apply to the 2005 as well, or should we expect support by 2.6.29...

There is a Hindu religious channel on Intelsat 9 at 58W if you can receive satellites that far east. Freq is 11477H.

Please consider PCIe instead of PCI. PCI is old technology, many motherboard manufacturers are only putting 1 or 2 PCI slots on their new boards, but there are usually more PCIe slots. Also bus speed for PCIe is much faster. Also, with the rush to digital from analog, many DVB cards are...

I am able to get the HD channel on 12180 at VPID 49 and APID 52 (and 53). However the content is exactly the same as on 12140 (VPID 65, APID 68 & 69). It looks like the HD channel on 12180 will become the feed channel, and 12140 (VPID 65) will carry the Pacific Time Zone schedule. Has anyone...

Oh, you'll be near the BIG dishes. Too bad you couldn't borrow one for FTA. :-)

Hmmmm.....Grants? Gallup? Silver City here....N32:50 W108:18. Green, please. :-)

According to Lyngsat, There are now 2 Ku band HD/8PSK channels on AMC3....The Florida Knowledge Network and the Florida Channel. They used to be on Digicipher2. Now I have to start thinking about getting a DVB-S2 capable PC card. :-)

I'm in SW New Mexico and I'm having the same issues. Since this is our "rainy season" I thought at first that it was because of clouds/rain, but today is a beautiful sunny day and I'm still getting breakup (macroblocks). One other thing I found is that the frequencies move around a little...for...
