Hi,

I would like to read dvb-t stream from an usb stick with vlc. I use :

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv --color dvb-t: --dvb-adapter=0 --dvb-frequency=626000000
Vlc stop at trying to tune :

Code: Select all

[00000256] dvb access debug: trying to tune the frontend... [00000256] dvb access debug: using inversion=2 [00000256] dvb access debug: using bandwidth=0 [00000256] dvb access debug: using fec=9 [00000256] dvb access debug: using fec=9 [00000256] dvb access debug: using transmission=0 [00000256] dvb access debug: using guard=0 [00000256] dvb access debug: using hierarchy=0
I have wait during few minutes but no other debug message is write. I have made a small program to know if the USB stick work, with it, I can change the frequency and read the signal strengh and SNR. So why vlc is blocking ?

I have identify the problem, vlc doesn't open frontend as NONBLOCK so the ioctl call block until even happened. Why it could open it as Nonblock device ???
