[linux-dvb] Announcing pesdump-0.1

[Dave Chapman <dave@dchapman.com>]

Hello,

I've just uploaded a simple utility for recording a single PES stream from a 
DVB card to http://www.linuxstb.org.

I use it for recording radio stations - the resulting PES stream can be 
converted to an elementary stream (i.e. the format mpg123 or freeamp can 
play) using the pes2aud_es utility included with the driver.

You need to use another program to tune to the corresponding transponder 
(e.g. VDR, tuxzap, DTV), and you can then record as follows:

pesdump 2328 > recording.pes
[Press CTRL+C when you are done - or use sleep and kill]
pes2aud_es recording.pes > recording.mp2
mpg123 recording.mp2

If you want, you can even run multiple instances of pesdump at the same time 
to record different streams from the same transponder.  It should also work 
on budget cards, but I haven't tested it.

Thanks,

Dave.
