Any myth-tv friend in Norway able to watch TV towards the open RiksTV channels?? Even tried to<br>roll in the patches found in <a href="http://pkendall.homeip.net/">http://pkendall.homeip.net/</a> without any luck...<br><br>

Ok, got a bit further, but NO playing window is popping up, even if everything seems to be<br>working according to the output on the terminal:<br><br>helge@myth:~$ mplayer dvb://NRK2<br>MPlayer 1.0rc2-4.3.2 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team<br>
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9300 @ 2.50GHz (Family: 6, Model: 23, Stepping: 7)<br>CPUflags: MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 0 3DNow2: 0 SSE: 1 SSE2: 1<br>Compiled with runtime CPU detection.<br><br>Playing dvb://NRK2.<br>
dvb_tune Freq: 706000000<br>TS file format detected.<br><br>Any clue as to why? Maybe the same reason that refuse me from seeing anything in the mythtv<br>viewer even if signal is OK (mpeg4 encoding??)<br><br>Is the renderer engine that is used in mplayer the same as in mythtv?<br>

Since I didn't get much answer from you on my last reports, I tried to start from scratch. <br>
Installed Mythbuntu 8.10 and started out with blank sheets...<br>
<br>
Got rid of the error statements from the backend, and are managing to get into a viewer up and<br>
running now when attempting to watch TV.<br>
<br>
Signal is 48% on my DVB-T channels in Norway, but there is no lock which the viewer also <br>
warns me about. <br>
<br>
Could this have anything to do with the the mpeg4 encoding of the TV signal here in Norway?<br>
<br>
Attaching the channels.conf file I used for setting up the channels in the channel editor. I got this<br>
from "scan scan.freq > channels.conf" (dvbutils package), where scan.freq contained these entries:<br>
<br>
T 706000000 8MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE<br>
T 650000000 8MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE<br>
T 786000000 8MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE<br>
<br>
As stated earlier, I'm getting a nice signal using "vlc channels.conf", but I'm having trouble<br>
getting mplayer dvb://102 understand what the heck I'm meaning...<br>
<br>
Any ideas?<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>

Seems like there's a problem with bindings between video sources to card input, even though I have connected them in the <br>
setup. Also, it's complaining about default channel, which I also ensured was a valid unencrypted channel.<br>
<br>
