Thanks Peter,
That allowed me to tune in properly. I was confused by the name "Frequency
ID", the ID portion
especially!
I still cannot change channels like you with the channel up/down. Can
anyone help
here, is it a specific BT878 issue, setup etc.
I also can use test_ioctl to change cannels and xawtv and mplayer work
fine stand-alone.
Hope someone can help, my live TV is great now (60% cpu interlaced on a
1.4G Duron).
Just wish I could watch another channel.
Also, selcting a channel from the EPG doesn't work either.
Cheers,
Bernie.
