Playlist issue on DVB-T

[festivalsfrancais]

Hi,

I am having difficulty building an m3u playlist with my favourite TV channels.
The issue seems to be with the "program" option

It works if I use the following shortcut (note the "--" before the program) :

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" dvb-t://frequency=674167000 --program=293

But when I use this (note the ":" before the program) I get a wrong channel (first channel of multiplex?) :

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" dvb-t://frequency=674167000 :program=293

And when I try it inside a m3u playlist I just get a black screen :

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1,France 3 #EXTVLCOPT:program=293 dvb-t://frequency=674167000

Is my syntax correct?

Note: I am using VLC 1.1.0, on Vista x64 and with Aero deactivated

How does your playlist look like when you open the via command-line?

[festivalsfrancais]

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" dvb-t://frequency=674167000 --program=293

appears as

Code: Select all

dvb-t://frequency=674167000

in the playlist (Title column - all others empty)

[VLC_help]

Thanks. Does it work any better if you put

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" :program=293 dvb-t://frequency=674167000

At the front or at the back, the ":" doesn't work (wrong channel)

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" :program=293 dvb-t://frequency=674167000

At the front or at the back, the "--" works (correct channel)

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --program=293 dvb-t://frequency=674167000

In all four cases, the playlist inside VLC only displays

Code: Select all

dvb-t://frequency=674167000

[festivalsfrancais]

With this playlist, only one channel per frequency works:

Code: Select all

Does it work any better with today nightly build ?

http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/win32/?C=M;O=D

Get the most recent BRANCH version.

Hi

I tried with the exe in "branch-20100707-0203", and it still doesn't work:

- TF1 works
- France 2 works
- but France 3 and France 5 show France 2
- M6 doesn't work

(I didn't got further)

[Lotesdelere]

What happen if you add the bandwidth parameter to each line like this:

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U #EXTINF:-1,TF1 #EXTVLCOPT:program=1537 dvb-t://frequency=714167000:bandwidth=8 #EXTINF:-1,France 2 #EXTVLCOPT:program=257 dvb-t://frequency=674167000:bandwidth=8 #EXTINF:-1,France 3 #EXTVLCOPT:program=293 dvb-t://frequency=674167000:bandwidth=8

Please give us feedback as soon as possible, it's important for the v1.1.1 release.
Thank you.

[festivalsfrancais]

With v1.1.1, it works.
With v1.1.0, it half works (I have to reselect the program in "Lecture > Programme").

[Lotesdelere]

With v1.1.1, it works.

All channels are working fine ?

[festivalsfrancais]

My test playlist was working all fine (First 6 channels), but when I added the rest of the french channels I realised that some refuse to start.
I get the title of the current show displayed in the toolbar, but no sound or video. The non-working channels are: W9, TMC, BFM, Gulli, and Arte_HD (all the others are working fine)

This is my current playlist

Same issue as mine described here then. Thanks for the report.
