So I ran w_scan again, with more conservative options, and actualy
picked up the channels that are being broadcast via DVB-T on 770MHz. In
case anyone cares:
S-a-b-c
1(SABC):770000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_1_2:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:85:83:61
S-a-b-c
2(SABC):770000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_1_2:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:260:34:62
S-a-b-c
3(SABC):770000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_1_2:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:65:89:63
eTV(ETV):770000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_1_2:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:272:273:105
Unfortunately, VLC jumps all over the place (window resizing, mostly),
and shows a pretty garbled signal. It is visually recognizable as a TV
broadcast, though. Eventually, though, VLC just dumps core with a
segmentation fault.
I guess this is related to a weak/corrupted signal, although the ber
showing up while running tzap seemed reasonable:
rogan@athena:~/w_scan-20080105$ tzap "eTV(ETV)"
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
tuning to 770000000 Hz
