Windows XP, VLC 1.0.3, 2 x Nova-S Plus

Here is what i tried "ZDF Theaterkanal"
C:\Programme\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe dvb:-s// --dvb-frequency=11953500 --dvb-srate=2750000 --dvb-voltage=18 --programs=28016



Frequenz 11953.50 MHz
SR 27500

I get this error
"The command line option couldn't be loaded, check that they are valid"

[VLC_help]

dvb:-s// -> dvb-s://

[Chris123]

c:\Programme\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe dvb-s:// --dvb-frequency=11953500 --dvb-srate=2750000 --dvb-voltage=18 --programs=28016

Am I using wrong drivers?

[VLC_help]

There isn't an option called dvb-voltage

[Chris123]

sure?

I found this option here http://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-h ... l#id315716 and in many other examples.
Its for horizontal or vertical







I think there is an other problem why vlc doenst opens dvb-s

[KenS]

Have you got BDA drivers installed?
That's one cause of the error "Cannot find a suitable System Tuning Space"
Another is when the BDA install did not set up the registry properly

[VLC_help]

You can look the available options from
http://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_command-line_help
(just seek DirectShow DVB input part)

[Chris123]

thanks u 2!

i am a step closer i got this BDA driver and now VLC start without the MRL error message
I found this driver at www.hauppauge.com --> 88x_2_124_27191_1_WHQL.zip

I changed my comandline parameters
C:\Programme\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe dvb:-s// --dvb-frequency=11953500 --dvb-srate=2750000 --dvb-polarisation=h --programs=28016
now no error occurs but nothing else happens

my next try
C:\Programme\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe dshow// --dvb-frequency=11953500 --dvb-srate=2750000 --dvb-polarisation=h --programs=28016

now i can see a big blue vlc window

hm i dont know what to do

[VLC_help]

dshow is for DirectShow devices. With most DVB devices, you have to use dvb

Code: Select all

dvb:-s//

you have that wrong again.

[KenS]

try dvb-srate=27500
(not 2750000)
