Hi, this are some trivial zapping applications explaining how to use the frontend and demux API. They are also pretty useful to test your hardware. For DVB-S, Astra Channel config file: $ ./szap -c channels.conf-dvbs-astra n24 will tune to N24. For DVB-C, Berlin Cable channel config: $ ./czap -c channels.conf-dvbc-berlin Arte For DVB-T, Berlin Config: $ ./czap -c channels.conf-dvbt-berlin phoenix By default the MPEG stream is routed to a hardware decoder. If you want to record the stream to disk you will route it to the DVR device by using the '-r' option: $ ./czap -c channels.conf-dvbt-berlin phoenix -r [keep it running in one console] $ cat /dev/dvr/adapter0/dvr0 > /tmp/recording.ts [in a second console, will dump the MPEG transport stream to /tmp/recording.ts] The status messages have the following meaning: status 0x1f --- The demodulator status bits. 0x1f means all bits set, everything ok. signal [0x0000...0xffff] --- Signal Strength. Values above 0x8000 should be ok. snr [0x0000...0xffff] --- Signal/Noise Ratio. Values above 0x8000 are ok. ber [0...0xffffffff] --- Bit Error Rate. The less the better. unc [0...0xffffffff] --- Number of Uncorrectable Blocks. Small numbers are Preferable. If everything is alright and all frontend circuits are working stable (are locked) you should see a FE_HAS_LOCK in the rightmost line. Good luck, Holger .cfc2975'>summaryrefslogtreecommitdiffstats
