me-tv scans ATSC channels on my HVR-950Q and creates a channels.conf
file. The file has channel entries, even though the Channel Scan window
reports nothing but "Failed to tune" messages. But me-tv cannot use its
own file. It complains, "There's an invalid channel record in the
channels.conf file." Oh, come on! Was this application tested even once?
My file contains the following:
CKXTDT:509028615:8VSB:65:67:2
CKXT:509028615:8VSB:81:83:3
HDTV RADIO-CANADA OTTAWA:521028615:8VSB:49:52:11
HDTV CBC OTTAWA:539028615:8VSB:49:52:10
(I live in Canada. Our TV stations have until 2011 to go digital and
they are moving slowly.)
A possible problem is the strange 2-byte character following "CKXTDT" in
the first line, hex 0810. Removing this line did not make the file
acceptable to me-tv.
Does anyone have experience with this glitch?

Looks like you have a weird control char on the first line.
Try removing this.
Also use 'azap -r CKTX' to see if you get lock.

This is a me-tv problem. Using the same channels file, I can watch TV
using gxine. azap returns
"video pid 0x0051, audio pid 0x0053" and then repeats the line
status 1f | signal 0078 | snr 0073 | ber 000000ff | unc 000000ff |
FE_HAS_LOCK
Thanks for your help.

Nope, that's why ATSC support has been removed in the newer versions,
there's no one testing it.
If you have an issue with Me TV then you probably should raise that
with upstream.
Thanks,
Michael
