Hi

Something bugging me and it's the last thing...

Have TvTime runing and I can pick up say BBC on something like channel 124.

Have Freevo woking with a suitable channel guide.

When channel selected in Freevo it displays channel 0!


This appears in the log:


mplayer.py (102): MPlayer version is: 1.0pre7try3-SUSE
mplayer.py (112): MPlayer version set to: 1.0
__init__.py (310): TV: checking guide

-d /dev/video0 -f freevo -c 0 -i 0 -m, poll=-1*
1148245925.21: started tv app
TVTIME 1 KEY EVENT: "['\x00']"


The TvTime Stations appear OK:

  <list frequencies='freevo' norm='PAL'>
    <station active='1' band='US Cable' name='BBC 1' channel='121' 
position='0'/>
    <station active='1' band='US Cable' name='BBC 2' channel='127'

    <station active='1' band='US Cable' name='UK Horizons' channel='0'

  </list>


OK It says US Cable but Freevo seems to want to generate these so is it 
something I've got wrong in the Freevo config?

Once I have this analogue tuner working then I'm going to get my nice 
DVB one to work which isnt a supported (OS) tuner...

Kev,
