The file has channel entries, even though the Channel Scan window reports nothing but "Failed to tune" messages. But me-tv cannot use its own file. It complains, "There's an invalid channel record in the channels.conf file." Oh, come on! Was this application tested even once? My file contains the following: CKXTDT:509028615:8VSB:65:67:2 CKXT:509028615:8VSB:81:83:3 HDTV RADIO-CANADA OTTAWA:521028615:8VSB:49:52:11 HDTV CBC OTTAWA:539028615:8VSB:49:52:10 (I live in Canada. Our TV stations have until 2011 to go digital and they are moving slowly.) A possible problem is the strange 2-byte character following "CKXTDT" in the first line, hex 0810. Removing this line did not make the file acceptable to me-tv. Does anyone have experience with this glitch? _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
