SageTV - Not Bad with QAM, but a few missing channels
Hey, long time sage user finally got a new hdtv and pvr-1800 to go along with the pvr-500 I had been using.
The qam setup wasn't too bad, it detected 5 clear hd channels and the first numbers of them all match what my samsung reported. 3 don't appear to be detected, but the samsung picks them up fine and so does tuning manually with czap (part of dvb-utils). Two channels not picked up are listed as 5-802 and 5-808 on the samsung. WPCH and WGTV (both hd). My dvb scan output has them like this (< added by me) [0322]:79000000:QAM_256:49:52:802 < WPCH [0328]:79000000:QAM_256:33:34:808 < WGTV WGTV-HD:79000000:QAM_256:49:51:1 WGTV-SD:79000000:QAM_256:65:67:2 WGTV-SD2:79000000:QAM_256:81:83:3 [0006]:141000000:QAM_256:0:17:6 [0018]:141000000:QAM_256:0:657:24 [0007]:141000000:QAM_256:0:81:7 I can do czap [0322] and [0328] and watch them fine. So the question is, how can I make sage use these frequencies since I know they're there and work fine. Edit: version info Wed 7/23 23:04:27.749 JVM version=1.6.0_06 Wed 7/23 23:04:27.749 OS=Linux 2.6.24-18-generic Wed 7/23 23:04:27.762 SageTV V6.3.5.1 Last edited by kambo; 07-23-2008 at 09:37 PM. |

Correction. I was watching these channels with azap, not czap. (Even though I only am using cable) And the scan file was a default scan which is apparently terrestrial:
/usr/bin/scan: -A N check for ATSC 1=Terrestrial [default], 2=Cable or 3=both Could that be a problem for sage? |

ok, sweet so I think I got it working.
I added these lines to the end of adapter0-QAM.frq: CH:53 major:0 minor:1 prog:802 phy:5 frq:79000000 mod:11 inv:0 # ![]() CH:54 major:0 minor:2 prog:808 phy:5 frq:79000000 mod:11 inv:0 # ![]() Then I went into channel setup and manually added two channels, station WPCHBO logical 7-1 physical 5-0-1 station WGTVDT logical 8-1 physical 5-0-2 and it worked! wheee! |
