DVB-T Recording (Single Channel) Help needed

Postby puck64 » 07 Jul 2015 07:41

Hi All,

I'm using "VLC Media Player 2.2.1 Terry Pratchett (Weatherwax)" on Windows 7 32bit but this question applies
to Kubuntu 15.04 64bit as well.

I have been trying to record a single channel (SBS HD) using the following bat file, to no avail. :(
In recorded.ts I get every TV channel and the 3 Radio Channels (see MediaInfo lower down).
How do I tell VLC to record "SBS HD" ONLY

Code: Select all

del F:\VLC\recorded.ts /q "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --run-time=20 dvb-t://frequency=184500000:bandwidth=7:program=774 :dvb-adapter=0 :live-caching=300 :sout=#duplicate{dst=file{dst=F:\\\\VLC\\\\recorded.ts,no-overwrite},dst=display} :sout-keep vlc://quit pause exit
