Which version of Totem?
Comment 3 Paul Ezvan 2009-12-24 13:07:48 UTC 
Sorry for the miss, totem 2.28.5.
Comment 4 Bastien Nocera 2009-12-24 13:11:59 UTC 
It doesn't like the non-unicode text here:
France �:586000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_AUTO:FEC_AUTO:QAM_AUTO:TRANSMISSION_MODE_AUTO:GUARD_INTERVAL_AUTO:HIERARCHY_AUTO:720:730:374
Comment 5 Paul Ezvan 2009-12-24 13:48:47 UTC 
Yes it works without this.
Comment 6 Bastien Nocera 2009-12-24 13:56:37 UTC 
It will appear as "France �" instead of France Ô.

The easy way to fix it is to transform it to valid UTF-8:
iconv -f ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8 channels.conf > channels.conf.fixed
and rename the file.

Please also file a bug against the tool you used to generate the file, it should be using UTF-8.

What's the output of "locale" on the system you used to generate this file?

I generated the file a while ago (it worked with totem 2.26) so I don't remember if I used scan or w_scan.

Now DVB playback doesn't work, how can I debug this ?
Comment 8 Bastien Nocera 2009-12-24 14:23:24 UTC 
Try:
gst-launch playbin2 uri="dvb://France 2"
and see if that works.

If there are problems, file a bug against GStreamer.
Comment 9 Paul Ezvan 2009-12-24 14:39:40 UTC 
Ok thanks, it is a gstreamer problem.
