Hi all,
I'm having some trouble getting my SkySat working. I followed the
directions on waikato's LUG and have managed to get a signal in dvbtune:
dvbtune -f 1733000 -s 22500 -p h -m -tone 0
scan -c -U also worked.
Where I ran into problems is in dvbstream, Unfortunately, that
doesn't work, it returns:
corrin at mythone:~$ dvbstream -f 1173 -s 22500 -p h -o 512 650 | mplayer -

I'm wondering if the problem is tone=off, but otherwise I'm stuck.
Does anybody have any ideas?
Thanks,
