[mythtv-users] Compiling DVB support into MythTV

[Michael Skaastrup]

Hi.

I found the problem.

it was not in Myth at all, but in my head. The RPM version installs myth
in /usr/lib and the source inst. places it in usr/local/lib. To use the
newly compiled libraries, i had to insert /usr/local/lib into ld.so.conf
and i worked.

But now i'm stuck. How do i setup DVB channels. Is there a straight
forward guide or an utility to help me???

To setup a satellite press 'm' instead of the usual 'enter' when
selecting the satellite. (It doesn't run right now, so it was "as I
remember it")
