It requires two dashes.

For instance current file looks like this:

if [ $MAC = "00:0D:FE:0B:B2:1E" ]; then
mvpmc -a 16:9auto -m pal -o svideo --no-seek-sync --startup emulate --emulate 10.0.0.60 &
else
mvpmc -a 4:3 -m pal -o svideo --no-seek-sync --startup emulate --emulate 10.0.0.60 &
fi

Gonna give it a go

Cheers

Well.....

changes made to emulation boot up as previously listed.

Required a reboot on the server and then cold boot on MVP to get it all going.

It went well until 4/5th channel change then locked up on video but still had audio.

a) Better than a black screen

b) MVPMC still delivers better than the Hauppauge Dongle when it does it's stuff.

Martin wanna explore

My logs are freely available....

That sound like the mpeg stream is messed up and the mvpmc demux doesn't lke the channel changes. I'd try a different mux, maybe one of the Cyberlink ones.

I explored my own setup the best I am going to be able to do, I went up 60 analog channels and back down and it worked. If you want to provide logs I'd like to see

- complete set for the Hauppauge dongle up and down through all your channels.

- complete set for mvpmc dongle up to the blank screen ensuring the following

- Minimal OSD is set as I recommended, if you want this I recommend the Hauppauge dongle.

- You wait at least 3 seconds to change channels (after sound and video are synced)

when that fails you I like a third set of logs where you add the --no-sync-skip and try mvpmc again.
