[mythtv-users] TV problem with PAL and SECAM

[Jason Schloer]

Actually this problem includes the U.S. now too. I just got the pcHDTV
and since it uses ATSC for channels I can't use my other card at the
same time which uses NTSC. So what are peoples suggestions. I'm guessing
this should be moved out of the general settings and into the card or
channel provider settings. My vote is on the channel's listings. It
should be relatively easy to divide up channel listings in xmltv for
different standards. How difficult of a change is this? I have some
ideas, but I'll save that for when I have time and for the dev list.
Anyway, just thought I'd mention it.

 Hello !


 I found a strange problem that should only happen in countries where
 both PAL and SECAM channel can be found (In France, the norm is SECAM.
But
you'll find a lot of interesting foreign programs in PAL norm)

 xawtv works fine, with  .xawtv file containing both PAL and SECAM
channels.

 But mythtv doesn't.

 The channel changes well, but for example, if the last channel was PAL
and
the next one will be PAL -> It's OK.

 But if the next one is SECAM, you will get a totally messed picture !

 The problem comes from the fact that Mythtv does never care of the
norm...

 Too bad... I'll have too choose between PAL or SECAM channel to set up
mythtv...



 Is there any way to configure Mythtv to accept and handle correctly
several
norms in the same time ?

 Thank you very much !
