Dear LinuxTV developers,

When I was playing with "scan" utility, I paid attention to comments in
file /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/nl-All

> # The Netherlands, whole country
> # Created from http://radio-tv-nederland.nl/TV%20zenderlijst%20Nederland.xls
> # and http://radio-tv-nederland.nl/dvbt/dvbt-lokaal.html

and what is interesting the comments refer to radio-stations only.

After I have completed the scan (I leave in the Netherlands in Delft
area) I have not found few TV stations. I think that the list is missing
522MHz and 698MHz. After I have added them (see patch file), I was able
to complete the scan. However I think that I have made an error, because
I can't watch TV channels fount on the newly added frequencies.

Can somebody help me to improve "nl-All" file?

Thanks.

TV zenderlijst is pure DVB-T frequencies. I have not found a single FM 
frequency there. Note that if you open it via their website, there are 
two lists, FM zenderlijst and TV zenderlijst.

You are probably using an old scan file. I pushed an updated version a 
week or two ago. I'm still working on an automated way to have daily 
frequency releases, but even then it can take a while before packagers 
pick it up.

Until then, you are free to use:
http://git.linuxtv.org/dtv-scan-tables.git/blob_plain/HEAD:/dvb-t/nl-All


As for your patch, I think it's wrong. On 522 Mhz (through the country, 
Delft as well) we have NTS4 (Bouquet 5) which is on a 2/3 coding rate, 
in your patch it's at 1/2.

On 698 MHz we have NTS1 (Bouquet 2) which is on a code rate of 1/2.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

I see. I think I have overlooked something.

Great! Thanks for updating the nl-All file. What will be the dvb-apps
future version which will include the fix?

Also what is the relation between git repo you've referred and this repo:
http://linuxtv.org/hg/dvb-apps/log/f3a70b206f0f/util/scan/dvb-t/nl-All
?

You're absolutely correct. Perhaps that is the reason why I cannot watch
TV on 522 MHz.

> On 698 MHz we have NTS1 (Bouquet 2) which is on a code rate of 1/2.

Still I cannot make them working. More exactly:

This works (722 MHz):
xine "dvb://Nederland 1"
xine "dvb://Nederland 2"
xine "dvb://Nederland 3"

These do not (522 MHz and 698 MHz):
xine "dvb://Nickelodeon"
xine "dvb://RTL 4"
...

It can be the case the signal is better on 722 MHz... Could you share
your channels.conf? Are there any specific options you pass to scan
utility? But it's likely I need to buy better antenna. Can scan utility
show the signal level?

Thanks.

We've split the dvb-tables from dvb-apps, so never :p I'll work in the 
next few weeks on having 'releases' when there are changes so that 
package maintainers can start picking it up.

I don't 522 or 698 MHz, RTL4 is on 768 MHz here in Eindhoven.

Try scanning with w_scan; wscan tells you exactly where what exactly is. 
It can produce an inital scanning file. Send me and I'll fix it up for you.

Try tzap to tune to a channel, depending on your driver, it should 
output some rudimentary signal strength.
Signal is indeed important, Remember that RTL4 etc are all encrypted and 
need  a hardware cam or softcam (oscam) to properly work.

Yes, signal strenght isn't the best to read, but let it run for a little 
bit. Your ber isn't great but you have unc's UNC = Unrecoverable Error. 
This can usually be seen on screen or heard. unc should be 0 for 
'perfect' image. So it looks like a bad signal reception to me, which 
could be the reason you are not receiving everything.

Nou, only Boequet 1 is Free to Air, that is NL1, NL2, NL3 and Omroep 
West in your case. The rest is all encrypted!
