Hi, and thank you.

Can you please document the output format for scan? In theory I should
easily be picking up stations where I am (based on antennaweb.org) but I'm
not getting any output from scan. Can I manually build a channels.conf file
with known station data, so I can narrow down my problem's causes?

Also, is it normal for can to output "ERROR: initial tuning failed" if no
stations are found?

Ahhhh soooo desu, neee.

Thhanks!

just type "./atsc-converter /path/to/channel/file >channels.dvb" in that
dir (and copy channels.dvb to the right place afterwards)

I've compiled the atsc-converter executable via 'make'.

Can you tell me how to install and run it?

I tried 'sudo make install' but get.
'make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.'

Do I not need to install such a utility? How would one run such a script?

Thanks,
Dave

that's why this is a valid feature request - because scanning from the
frequency files isn't implemented for atsc yet ...

the util works with a scan file made from the scan utility, but not the
frequency files in the directory I listed above....

Tuning support for atsc is implemented (although I have to admit that it's
a bit hidden atm ...). You need to have a valid channels.conf file
(generated by the scan application in the dvb-utils package) and convert it
by the tool at [1]. Copy the output to
~/.kde/share/apps/kaffeine/channels.dvb and it should work :)
