GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 554875
dvb-channels.conf parsing errors very unfriendly
Last modified: 2008-10-07 14:19:42 UTC
Please describe the problem: I'm using totem and associated gstreamer plugins from Ubuntu Intrepid (so GNOME 2.24). When selecting my DVB adaptor (a Hauppauge WinTV Nova-T USB stick) with a dvb-channels.conf created by w_scan, I get a huge number of error dialogs appearing at once. It seems to be one per channel listed (which is 90 for UK Freeview) and they say that the channel could not be parsed because it is corrupt. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277618 for debug logs, but I'm not sure how helpful they will be, as the debugging output is mostly from gstreamer. Steps to reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
Could you please give me a copy of the channels.conf file, and attach it here?
Created attachment 119871 [details] w_scan produced dvb-channels.conf Sure. It is attached to the launchpad report, but it's here now as well.
FYI, your channels.conf file is in VDR format. It needs to be in xine format.
Oh blah, I didn't realise w_scan's script prefers DVB. Still, throwing up 90 or so error dialogs is pretty unhelpful :)
