Hi list!
Does anybody know a way to get mhwepg-0.4.2 working with the 2.6 kernel-drivers?
Thanks,

No problem for me with kernel 2.6.6 or newer. If you are using an older driver, a patch is necessary (look into the linux-dvb mailing list archive).

From www.vdr-wiki.de I got this:



Don't know if something changed in the driver in kernel 2.6, but I couldn't get the program to work even after patching. It seems that the default buffer size is too small for everything to work smoothly. What solved my problem was adding the following lines at the beginning of SetFiltSection, right after the line |struct dmx_sct_filter_params sctFilterParams; |

if (ioctl(fd, DMX_SET_BUFFER_SIZE, 10*188*1024)<0) {
perror("DMX SET BUFFER SIZE");
exit(0);
}

I'm puzzled because 10*188*1024 should be the default buffer size,
but before the modification it didn't work, now it does so....

At the dvb or vdr-ml I couldn't find anything ...

Thanx,
Andreas Brugger

Don't want do annoy anybody here, but maybe someone has an additional hint for me ...
I wrote that at vdr-wiki, and mhwepg is working fine here *but* only with csd: either sky italia has stopped broadcasting the epg (or they just broadcast the "sky way") or they changed the transponder, so no more one week epg for the fta channels on hotbird :-(
