[Redbutton-devel] How to use RedButton

[Mario R. <mar...@go...>]

Hi,

I've been using red-button for a while but I'm not sure I'm using it properly.

Basically this is what I do:

1) tzap -x "BBC ONE" && rb-download
2) I read the channel id of BBC ONE (4164)
3) tzap -x "BBC ONE" && rb-download 4164

in an other window

4) rb-browser -d services/9018

Here are my questions?

1) It seems that redbutton uses channels.conf now, but if I don't use
tzap it cannot find anything. Is it able to tune at the beginning?

2) If there is alreay an application using the dvb-t card it fails
ERROR: failed opening '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' (Device or resource busy)
while i remember I used to be able to use it on the same frequency of
the already displayed channel.

3) I MUST use (-d) otherwise it behaves very bad. The video is slow or
not moving at all. And it does not respond always to the key pressed

Those are some of the warnings:
[mpeg2video @ 0xb7cf0a44]invalid cbp at 33 34
[mpeg2video @ 0xb7cf0a44]00 motion_type at 15 35
[mpeg2video @ 0xb7cf0a44]concealing 1218 DC, 1218 AC, 1218 MV errors
[mp3 @ 0xb7cf0a44]incorrect frame size

[mpeg2video @ 0xb7cf0a44]ac-tex damaged at 3 1
[mpeg2video @ 0xb7cf0a44]ac-tex damaged at 8 2
[mpeg2video @ 0xb7cf0a44]ac-tex damaged at 1 3

4) The only directory created under services/ is services/9018.
Reading the documentation it seems that is should have the same number
that is specified in rb-download.

Would it be possible to know what is the current preferred way of
running rb-download & rb-browser.

I forgot to say that I'm using the latest "trunk" of both applications
and latest SVN ffmpeg.

Thanks
