dvblast - can't get streaming working

[MrLou]

I recently learnt of dvblast, and it seems a very useful utility so I thought I'd try it out.

I have a variety of DVB adapters available to test with but so far I have no joy in making it work.

I'm using dvblast 1.0 with command line:

Code: Select all

./dvblast -c /root/chans -a 0 -f 11954000 -v 18 -s 27500000 -m qpsk

my tuning file contains:

Code: Select all

239.16.9.9 1 6704

All this means it should be multicasting the BBC News Channel on Astra 2 <http://www.lyngsat.com/astra2a.html> to 239.16.9.9, but sadly I see no traffic. The logs show:

Code: Select all

Did I do something wrong?
