How to lock dvb signal?

Postby nobody » 30 Dec 2004 23:33

Hi all!
I have FC3 kernel-2.6.10, SkyStar1, work drivers and good test results and NO LOCK SIGNAL when using vlc -vvv dvb:// --dvb-adapter 0 --dvb-frequency 12207000 --dvb-srate 27500000

What I do wrong? How I can solve this problem?
[00000384] dvb access debug: check frontend ... has signal
[00000384] dvb access debug: check frontend ... has carrier

Thanks all who can help me! Pay it forward! :-)

just add --dvb-voltage 18 and it should be working :)
