<br><br>No matter what drivers I use I cannot get mythtv, scandvb or szap to lock on to any frequencies on Astra28.8E that are on the loband.<br>
<br>However if I use dvbstream to go straight to one of the channels , BBC 1 Scotland e.g, then it locks and I can pipe the output from dvr0 to mplayer...<br><br>If i plug the details of the same BBC 1 Scotland channel into the myth database it doesn't work either.
<br><br>plus those channels that do work (ie those on the highband) suffer from breakup and pixelation in myth but are crystal clear using dvbstream and mplayer.<br><br>I have a UNIVERSAL LNB, with the usual settings.<br>
<br>The sky digibox reports that the lnb is set up with 9.75,10.6 and 22khz on.<br><br>I'm stumped and am close to giving up.<br><br><br>currently i am using v4l-dvb-20070818 patched with multiple frontend patch, but i've tried stoth's hvr3000 tree and the latest hg clone of v4l-dvb and it makes no difference.
<br><br>I can't be the card as It does work with dvbstream.<br><br><br>Mythdora 4.0, 2.6.22-9.61.fc6 kernel.<br><br>Regards<br><span class="sg"><br>Mark Guz</span></blockquote><div><br><blockquote>Have you tried the card in a different box?
<br><br>I had trouble with my NVidia graphics card and the Nvidia drivers<br>interferring with the HVR-3000. Switching to the nv drivers stopped the<br>interferrence. Eventually I realigned my dish and this sorted the problem
<br>with the nvidia drivers. It seemed to be the case that when the video<br>card was busy (playing full screen video) it caused interferrence on the<br>HVR-3000. This could explain why you see it working in mplayer but not
<br>mythtv ?<br><br>I'm still running kernel 2.6.18 and Steven Toths HVR3000 drivers from<br>linux-dvb. I didn't think there was any other way to get the DVB-S to<br>work on the HVR-3000. Have you tried this?<br><br>

<br><br>I can't get any channels in the lowband H or V only the highband using scandvb or dvbtune or mythtv. The low band is accessible via dvbstream, which leads me to believe that the drivers are working.<br><br><br>
The sky digibox has no problems at all.<br>The channels in the highband i do receive suffer break up in livetv, but also if i record and then playback using myth.<br><br>I've read much about lnbs over the last two weeks and I wonder if myth is not applying the low and high lof parameters properly, or is not issuing the correct 22khz tone burst to switch between low and high bands.
<br><br>either way, AFAICS i;ve run out of options...<br><br>:-(<br><br>Mg.<br><br><br><br></div>
