Post subject: | WinTV-HVR850 + OTA ATSC |
I could use some help getting a WinTV-HVR850 working. I am doing a clean install of R6.02 from CD. I'm trying to pick up normal ATSC signals from my antenna. I know the antenna source works because I can plug it into a TV and watch programs. During setup, under 2. Capture Cards, I select New Capture Card. The only card type that has some probed information with it is DVB DTV capture card (v3.x), so that's the one I choose. Code: DVB Device Number: /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 Frontend ID: Auvitek AU8522 QAM/Subtype ATSC Next in step 3, I choose a new video source Code: Video Sourcename: antenna Grabber: Schedules Direct I type in my username and password, hit Retrieve Lineups, and it returns my correct Data Direct lineup. The Channel Frequency table is "default", which was set to "us-bcast" in step 1. General Next comes step 4 Input Connections (DVBInput) -> (None) I choose Video Source: antenna and notice in the background Xterm window: Code: DiSEqCDevTree, Warning: No device tree for cardid 1 I push the Scan for Channels button and it fails to find any channels. The "scan" window has these settings: Code: Video source: antenna Input: (DVBInput) Desired Services: TV, Free Only Scan Type: Full Scan Freq Table: Broadcast Modulation: Terrestrial (8-VSB) Range: 2 -> 83 All 82 channels say Timed Out, no signal. I look back in the Xterm window and find this message repeated five times: Code: DVBChan(1:/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0) Error: Tune(): Setting Frontend tuning parameters failed. eno: Invalid argument (22) followed by a single: Code: ChanImport: No channels to process...
I appreciate any help someone has to offer. PS. I had to transcribe a lot of messages in this post. If you see something that doesn't look right, it might be my typing. |

I was able to find channels by setting Signal Timeout (msec) and Tuning Timeout (msec) to 10000 in the window that defines the new DVB capture card. |
