Ok, a little bit more hacking and I'm getting some encouraging results.<br>
<br>
I went through that entire channels.conf and got something from the MTS
channel.<br>
Using that, I hacked it into a file like this:<br>
<blockquote>T 666000000 8MHz 3/4 3/4 QAM64 8k 1/16 NONE<br>
</blockquote>
and ran <br>
<blockquote>dvbscan -v -v test<br>
</blockquote>
Which found SEVEN CHANNELS!<br>
<blockquote>TV
ONE:666000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_3_4:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_16:HIERARCHY_NONE:270:320:1200<br>

So I copied these into /etc/mplayer/channels.conf<br>
and ran mplayer dvd://"TVNZ 7"<br>
<blockquote>cinema mplayer # mplayer dvb://"TVNZ 7"<br>

So still no video ;-(<br>
<br>
I have been using H.264 and AAC for quite some time, because I compress
into that format when I want to archive shows to DVD.<br>
<br>
I still get the feeling I'm missing something important.<br>
