I use scan from dvb-apps, the command is<br>
"scan -o vdr /root/dvb/Astra-19.2E > /etc/vdr/channels.conf"<br>
where /root/dvb/Astra-19.2E is file with "S 11567500 V 22000000 5/6"</blockquote><div>I think that's the main issue. <i>BOUWSMA w</i>rote that its ok to rely on astra's maintainers and connect to any transponder is enough to get a list of all others. I personaly don't trust those maintainers since I saw too many errors in NIT messages that specify the transponder, so I specify all the frequencies I want to scan. I don't have a dish to 19.2, but there were many errors with 5 other satellites I have.<br>
You can get a list of those frequencies here:<br><a href="http://www.lyngsat.com/astra19.html">http://www.lyngsat.com/astra19.html</a><br><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

I use cx88-dvb driver but many modules are loaded with it see<br>
<a href="http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/lsmod.txt" target="_blank">http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/lsmod.txt</a></blockquote><div>I meant to ask what is the origin of the driver. I use Igor's driver from:<br><a href="http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin/">http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin/</a><br>
<br>If you have a S2API driver (or will use Igor's driver), you can use my scan-s2 application with many changes in NIT parsing that might resolve your issue.<br><a href="http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/scan-s2/">http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/scan-s2/</a><br>

<br>
Scan console output is in file <a href="http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/channels.conf" target="_blank">http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/channels.conf</a><br>
and the result in <a href="http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/channels.conf" target="_blank">http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/channels.conf</a></blockquote><div>You've posted the same link for both outputs. Please post console output when you run scan with "-v" parameter. Maybe even with "-vv".<br>

<br>
When console shows<br>
__tune_to_transponder:1508: ERROR: Setting frontend parameters failed: 22 Invalid argument<br>
<br>
the dmesg prints<br>
DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 frequency 8175750 out of range (950000..2150000)</blockquote><div>It could be anything. Bad NIT message (most probably) or a memory smashing in scan application.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
