Problems with DVB_T Channels UK

gEd · 2006-12-05, 11:16 PM

AFAIK, DVB-T radio is not available from gbpvr. It's on the wishlist.

Nice, thanks gEd, I thought I had that right but was just checking if someone had a brilliant workaround for this. All I want to do is get a Virgin radio .pls into my favourites on net radio but am getting no joy. The same .pls works on my XBMC

cheers

You could try setting <UseWindowsMediaPlayerForNetRadio>true</UseWindowsMediaPlayerForNetRadio> in config.xml.

Sub, just tried that, to no avail. Just to make sure all settings were right I booted up XBMC and buffered up Virgin, which is now playing.

I happened to see there is a setting in the BDA Channel Scan in Config.xml to ignore BDA Radio and it is set to false. I guess no point chnaging it to true?

thanks

I wouldnt bother trying DVB radio. There is no real support for it at this stage. Its on my todo list for the future.

Sub, OK I know where we are at with DVB-T based radio now Wink

Can anyone help me with my Virgin Radio .pls prob. Works fine, if a little slow to buffer in XBMC but GBPVR does not want to know at all. I tried to upload it as it was but it is an invalid file. I could change its extension to a .BMP or somesuch but would that work and are you bothered Big Grin

Nice

OK, don't blame you, not a lot of bovveration but if you can try out in your net radio favourites please rename the attached with a .pls and see where I've gone wrong.

Dont you hate that - it worked first try for me. I've got UseWindowsMediaPlayerForNetRadio set to 'true'.

It failed when I tried it with UseWindowsMediaPlayerForNetRadio set to 'false'. I looked at the data it returned, and it was giving some error code "302 - page moved", specifying the new URL as http://vruk.sc.llnwd.net:12250/. I updated your .pls file to contain this URL and it worked fine. I'd have guess WMP can cope with this, which is why it worked fine when I had UseWindowsMediaPlayerForNetRadio set to 'true'.
