  • Followup: RE: Amazon search returns no results

    I've done some hacking as I've got about 30 DVDs to add and I've made it work for now. I'll freely admit that this is a bit brute force! In functions/OpenDbSnoopy.class.inc I changed $this->agent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 Firefox/1.5.0.4'; to $this->agent = 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR...

Should have checked a domestic feed before submitting, sorry! It actually appears the problem is only when using stdin. Take the TS from /dev/dvb/adapterX and its fine, cat /dev/dvb/adapterX/dvr0 to a file...

  • TS sync enhancement

    The current method for syncing to the start of the packet results in a lot of spurious locks and lots of duff packets with the "Wrong SyncByte or packet length mismatch (= no TS)" messages. Searching for 0x47 on its own isn't quite enough. A better way is to look for 0x47 and then checking the next byte has bit 6 set. See attached file, ts_SyncRead now uses a two stage found process...
