Opening DVB-S channel with PID

Postby Orion4048 » 15 Dec 2009 13:59

Hi,

I'm able to see the channels, which the transponder has only one Video PID. But if it has more than one, i cannot select the Video PID. Is there a way for this? My parameters for non PID (works):

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv dvb-s:// :dvb-frequency=11962000 :dvb-srate=3333000 :dvb-polarisation=V :dvb-adapter=0 :dvb-device=0 :dvb-fec=3
Thanks.

Thanks for the answer. I've tried "program" parameter, both hex and dec, but output says:

Code: Select all

[0xe138a8] dvb access debug: frontend has acquired signal [0xe138a8] dvb access debug: frontend has acquired carrier [0xe138a8] dvb access warning: no lock, tuning again
So didn't work. Is it something wrong with the usage:

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv dvb-s:// :dvb-frequency=11054000 :dvb-srate=3000000 :dvb-polarisation=H :dvb-adapter=0 :dvb-device=0 :dvb-fec=5 --program=201
Edit: I've created a channels.conf file with scan, and it has found channels well). How can i use it with vlc? "vlc channels.conf" does nothing.

Can someone tell me what should i do? I've tried nearly everything. The parameters for the channel are:

Frequency: 11054
Symbol rate: 30000
FEC: 5/6
Polarisation: Horizontal
Video PID: 512
Audio PID: 650

I didn't compile. Using Ubuntu 9.10 and installed vlc with apt-get. But you should use "--enable-dvb" flag while compiling, if i'm not wrong.
