So I reformulate my question : How can I use these pieces of information
with vlc ?
Usually with vlc, I use : vlc
dvb-t://adapter=0:bandwith=8:frequency=490000000
I think I can replace "adapter=0" by "adapter=%s" but I don't know for
the other parameters
On the other hand, you said the backend isn't sending any stream out, so
how does it work when the frontend is on a different computer without
any tuner ? The stream should pass through the network, shouldn't it ?
