Personally I don't think I'd bother with the RG6 at all. As long as =
you can put a mythbackend somewhere with the antenna connections, then yo=
u can just run a front end off the network anywhere you need to.
In any case, digital terrestial will be UHF, so will work fine off o=
f the same antenna feed as analog, assuming you connect both VHF and UHF =
to the same cable?

Subject: [mythtvnz=
] Cabling my house
Hey guys,
I just want to try and guages peoples opinions here. I'm =
going to cable
up my house soon (both network and RG6 for video), and with the
impending arrival of digital TV, should I run additional RG6 cable?<=
/DIV>
Normally I would have run one RG6 cable to each faceplate for an ant=
enna
feed. However, if digital TV comes along and we still hav=
e analog TV, I
might be better to have two RG6 cables at each faceplate. =
;Otherwise
I'll need a splitter where ever I want to have both. (Whi=
ch should be
nowhere, since we mostly use MythTV.)
What do you guys think?
Cheers!

Hi =
MythTV=20
users,
I am =
new to MythTV=20
and now this list. I had in mind for sometime to setup a =
MythTV=20
server (with frontend) and a couple of other frontends around the =
house. =20
So a couple of weeks ago I got myself a Athlon box with PVR-500 and =
nVidia=20
GeForce 6600 card (my big TV can take DVI) and 250GB Sata2=20
drive.
I =
downloaded=20
Knoppmyth R5C7 and started the install process. After working =
through the=20
issues of getting the sata drive to work and obtaining a listings.xml =
(sydog) I=20
have struck a snag.
I =
can't get the=20
mythtv app to tune a station. I just get static. But the =
interesting=20
thing is that mplayer works fine on both /video0 and /video1. =
After=20
spending a couple of nights looking through the lists, I can't find the=20
answer.
Can =
anybody=20
help?
I'm =
still using a=20
monitor instead of TV, and haven't got the MCEUSB remote (RC6) that came =
with=20
the PVR-500 working yet, but have seen list help for =
these.
I've been looking into the missing =
category=20
situation with DVB EPG stuff.
It appears the categories are actually =
in the=20
stream as I think David pointed out in an earlier post.
The issue appears to be the way =
tv_grab_dvd is=20
working the data.
I think i've narrowed it down to the=20
parseContentDescription function but i'm not a C expert so can only =
follow the=20
logic.
As those who use it know, you get the =
following=20
entries in the output xml...
=20
<!--Unknown_Please_Report ID=3D"55" Len=3D"4"=20
-->
=20 <!--Unknown_Please_Report ID=3D"5f" Len=3D"4" -->
=20 <!--Unknown_Please_Report ID=3D"5f" Len=3D"4" -->
My guess is that either 55 or 5f hold =
the category=20
data but that this ID isn't defined or setup correctly in tv_grab_dvb as =
category data?
here is =
parseContentDescription:
void =
parseContentDescription(descr_content_t=20
*dc)
{
int=20 c1,c2;
int=20 i;
for=20 (i=3D0;i<(dc->descriptor_length);i+=3D2)
= ; =20 {
&n= bsp; =20 nibble_content_t=20 *nc=3DCastContentNibble((char*)dc+DESCR_CONTENT_LEN+i);
&n= bsp; &nb= sp;=20 c1=3D((nc->content_nibble_level_1<<4)+(nc->content_nibble_lev= el_2));
&n= bsp; =20 c2=3D((nc->user_nibble_1<<4)+(nc->user_nibble_2));
&= nbsp; &n= bsp; =20 if (c1>0) = printf("\t<category>%s</category>\n",lookup((struct=20 lookup_table*)&description_table,c1));
&nb= sp; =20 // This is weird in the uk, they use user but not content, and almost = the same=20 values
&nb= sp; =20 if (c2>0) = printf("\t<category>%s</category>\n",lookup((struct=20 lookup_table*)&description_table,c2));
&nb= sp; =20 }
}
{
int=20 c1,c2;
int=20 i;
for=20 (i=3D0;i<(dc->descriptor_length);i+=3D2)
= ; =20 {
&n= bsp; =20 nibble_content_t=20 *nc=3DCastContentNibble((char*)dc+DESCR_CONTENT_LEN+i);
&n= bsp; &nb= sp;=20 c1=3D((nc->content_nibble_level_1<<4)+(nc->content_nibble_lev= el_2));

&nb= sp; =20 if (c2>0) = printf("\t<category>%s</category>\n",lookup((struct=20 lookup_table*)&description_table,c2));
&nb= sp; =20 }
}
Anyone have any ideas on=20
this?

I've been slowly getting my own Myth box up and running on a FC5 box for
a short while and need some help on getting Revens xmlTVNZ to work.
I can get it successfully working on a M$ XP box and have been able to
import its resulting xml file fine. (mythweb works so much better than
the Sky Guide ;)
Anyway when I try to run it, I get the following dump. If I dont have any
options (i.e. just run 'mono xmlTVNZ.exe' it runs fine, although not doing
anything, as expected.
Does anybody have any light to shed on this at all?
Cheers
Neil

My system is myth 0.19 on FC4 following the Jarrod =

mplayer, eg I can pause it etc but I only know this from the sound. =

I am using the –ontop argument for mplayer but =

I see in another list that this was an issue in V0.16 =
but
was supposedly solved in V0.17.
Does anyone have any suggestions/solutions =
please?

There is only one of Mono. Thank you for the clarification. I think I was confused by the 2 gentoo packages, mono from http://www.go-mono.com/ and monodevelop from http://www.monodevelop.com/ > > It's not in Debian yet, so check out http://pkg-mono.alioth.debian.org/ - > there are backports for Sarge at backports.org, but I assume knoppmyth comes > from unstable sources. > > I believe Mono will be available in Etch; it is available in Ubuntu as well, > but that doesn't help you much with KnoppMyth. There are certainly mono packages in testing or unstable, but there were a confusing number of things with "mono" in the name. I think I will leave xmlTVNZ to run on my work gentoo server, which can then serve a gzipped tv.xml file to my home myth box. When i get around to it. BTW I have hound that the tv3 flag to xmlTVNZ has crashed it in the past, the solution was to use sky_tv3 -- Nick Rout

As Toby says, you need to set the channel and callsigns the same for=
the same channels so Myth knows it can use either card when recordi=
ng.
In order to get the data for TV3 from DVB, you need to check out the=
instructions here:
I think you need to tune the DVB card to the 12671 transport in orde=
r to pull down the Sky data for all channels inc TV3. It isn't available =
from the 12456 transport where you're getting TV1 etc from normally.
There was also some useful info in responses to a similar question I=
posted on the list a week or two ago..
