Cannot get DVB-S2 to tune

Hi All,

I'm trying to use VLC to play an input from a DVB-S2 tuner. I know the tuner works because Kaffeine scans the channels and shows them perfectly.

For example, here's one of the channels found by Kaffeine's scanner:

I'm trying to get VLC to play this channel that I know works. The command I'm using is:

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv dvb-s2:// :dvb-frequency=10714300 :dvb-srate=22000000 :dvb-polarisation=H :dvb-adapter=0 :dvb-device=1 :dvb-fec=5
and I get a blank screen.

Presumably I need to set the service ID?

Thanks
