One Problem solved.
Delete those blank lines between channels and mythtv will find all the 3
channels.
But here comes another problem: mythtv can only play or record the channel
that is streamed in RTP.
It seems that mythtv can handle RTSP(from
here<http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/FreeBox>and
here <http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/420901>), but I
just couldn't get it work.
So, is mythtv capable of handling RTSP? If so, how to configure VLC(GUI or
commandlines) to stream RTSP to mythtv?
This is my VLC options:
:sout=#rtp{dst=239.255.12.12, port=1234, sdp=rtsp://:5544/mov} :sout-rtp-sap
:sout-rtp-name=202 :sout-standard-sap :sout-standard-name=202
:sout-standard-group=0 :sout-all :sout-keep


Thanks.
