TV tuner with separate demod and front end

minisatip cannot find and I cannot figure out how to select and enable DVB-C only. I have later Astrometa DVB-T, T2,C with Sony tuner. (Apparently later finally have drivers built-in. Used to be only Panasonic tuner working). This tuner properly detected and configured and working fine with TVHeaden...

Re: Info display?

Cata, Now thanks to you I'm aware that RPiZW2 will be available on November 2. I certainly will grab some. But my question is not about the build but about using I2C OLED display, even rather about acquiring information I would like to display on something like this: microcenter.com/product/613526/a...

Info display?

Cata, all, making it into tiny appliance with RPiZero I would like to hookup small display to it to indicate client's IP and tuning frequency, info that is available on internal server page. I certainly can write a little app to pull that page and parse it, but this will be ugly brute force. Display...

Re: Autostart: proper way on headless system...

I might found the problem: After looking at process list (# ps -aux) I found that my playlist in startup option was truncated after ".", there was no "...m3u" at the end. Guessing that whole string was not parsed properly I did include double quotes around URL for play list. Afte...

Re: Autostart: proper way on headless system...

9000h, all, " Armbian/Interface" I assume is network? My network is on Auto and I see no problem with it: source /etc/network/interfaces.d/* _____________________________ # Network is managed by Network manager auto lo iface lo inet loopback ______________________________ And to clarify: e...

Autostart: proper way on headless system...

I'm running it very smoothly on OPiZ with Armbian and Hauppauge 950Q. That is with manual start, everything works as it should and all devices see it as SAT>IP. Great! Now I'm attempting to setup auto-start: in /etc/rc.local _______________ sleep 5 cd /minisatip sudo ./minisatip -p http://x.x.x.x/pl...

Re: ATSC use?

Updates: After some testing it appeared that bandwidth and modulation settings are optional. In source code they default to auto. In reality this may cause request to hang indefinitely (~1 of 4 calls) or more often delaying start of streaming by 5-6 seconds (this is probably why I initially missed i...

Re: ATSC use?

I can't believe it but I did figure it out: ....?bw=6.000000&msys=atsc&mtype=256qam&freq=213&pids=65,68 .........edit your own frequency and PIDs It took me digging through source code to figure out right switches. So QAM256 must be written as "256qam". ATSC-C QAM (256) con...

Re: ATSC use?

9000h, Thanks for the hint! As I understand your excerpt is from Hauppage device? I'm not sure what to do with "wait" and other options: "dab" and "cmmb". So new URL will be: ...?bw=6&msys=atsc&mtype=qam256&freq=213&pids=65,68 It appeared that modulation...

Re: ATSC use?

After long nights I was able to successfully tune with w_scan and tvheadend works, so system is confirmed. Interestingly, in tvheadend it appeared as two independent inputs with every single parameter identical, including: frontend0, dvr0, demux0 and device path. The only difference is the names: &...
