dvbd

The idea behind dvbd is to make maximum use of your DVB card by allowing multiple channels on the same frequency to be tuned. It is split into a daemon (dvbd) and client programs (dvbcat, dvbsched, and dvblist). It is possible to associate a priority with a connection to the daemon, so that (depending on the given priority) the tuner can be made available by dropping connections of inferior priority. DVB-T, DVB-S, and DVB-C are supported. Conditional Access Modules (CAMs) are not yet supported.

Release Notes: The debian package was fixed. A problem with compiling src/outputstream.cpp was fixed.

  •  15 Apr 2005 03:38

Release Notes: This release updates the tuning code to latest version from dvbstream. The tuning code now respects the inversion setting in tzap channel configuration. This means that if you are using INVERSION_AUTO, channel tuning will take longer (if it worked before, you can get faster tuning by changing your channels.conf to read INVERSION_OFF instead). dvbd now hangs on to the frontend device for 5 seconds after the last connection to it. This is to allow quick tuning to the last tuned multiplex should another client connect. This release should now work with DiBcom 3000-MB DVB-T.

Release Notes: This release has some Fedora Core compatibility fixes. A 7MHZ bandwidth option for dvb-t has been added. There is more flexible channel finding in dvbdguide/tv.cgi.

  •  06 Jul 2004 11:35

Release Notes: This release uses the default prefix if none is provided, and actually reads the configuration file (default is /usr/local/etc/dvbd/config). Some DVB-T TZAP channel file format tokens have been added. Date parsing should now be case-insensitive.
