everything ok, but watching

Added by johan degreef almost 13 years ago

Hello,

I use a Cinergy T Stick RC
http://www.terratec.net/en/products/Cinergy_T_Stick_RC_97818.html
I tried to install TV headend on my ubuntu 11.10 machine. DVB-T card is found, multiplexes & services are populated correctly. I do this for Belgian DVB-T channels.
I could map all DVB-T services to channels, but when i press play the following appears in the system log:

From what repository did you install tvheadend? And which version?

Also, can you tune and record a channel using the standard dvb-apps tools? And if you look at femon, do you also see errors?

Continuity errors usually point to reception problems.

I installed this as mentioned on your download page:
hts-tvheadend_2.12_i386.deb — Binary for Debian/Ubuntu 32bit.
Added the repository and did an update.

I Will try to tune and record using the standard dvb-apps tools and watch what Femon says?

Reception is fine as i can watch TV through "Kaffiene" on the same ubuntu 11.10 machine

RE: everything ok, but watching - Added by Hein Rigolo almost 13 years ago

the 2.12 version has some bugs related to h.264 channels. I would suggest that you either compile your own version or that you take a recent tvheadend version from the repositories that create .debs based on the latest GIT. (Lars op den Kamp for example has a PPA with a recent GIT version)

That's too technical for me. Can you give mye guidelines how to:
-compile your own version
-that you take a recent tvheadend version from the repositories that create .debs based on the latest GIT. (Lars op den Kamp for example has a PPA with a recent GIT version)

Google for "lars op den kamp ppa" and the follow the instructions.
