dvbv5-scan is a command line [[Frequency scan|frequency scanning]] tool for [[Digital Video Broadcasting|digital TV services]] that is compliant with [[Development:_Linux_Media_Infrastructure_API|version 5 of the DVB API]], and backward compatable with the older v3 DVB API. It was developed as part of [[DVBv5 Tools]] suite, which (confusingly enough!) resides in the [http://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git v4l-utils git repositiory] [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/43100].
'''dvbv5-scan''' is a command line [[Frequency scan|frequency scanning]] tool for [[Digital Video Broadcasting|digital TV services]]. Its purpose is to attempt to locate the signals available on a digital TV tuner. Depending on the source, signals may be present on one or more of the ''possible'' channels, it is dvbv5-scan's purpose to find out which channels are actually in use.


dvbv5-scan scans for a list of physical channels/transponders and identifies if there is an MPEG Transport Stream (MPEG-TS) service available. A single "physical" channel (also called a transponder) may have multiple signals within it, encapsulated in MPEG-TS. Those virtual channels are called "services" in MPEG-TS terminology, and may have one or more audio/video/other elements inside. dvbv5-scan will also retrieve the information from the MPEG-TS Network Information Table (NIT) about the availablity of other channels in the stream. This information also includes the Service ID, which corresponds to the "station name" or "channel number" that you might find in a program listing or TV Guide.
dvbv5-scan uses a new channel/service file format, which is yet known to other applications.


dvbv5-scan looks for signals that are compliant with [[Development:_Linux_Media_Infrastructure_API|version 5 of the DVB API]], and backward compatable with the older v3 DVB API. It was developed as part of [[DVBv5 Tools]] suite, which resides in the [http://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git v4l-utils git repositiory] [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/43100]. It is based on a new channel/service file format that it is capable of supporting all types of DTV standards. It can also support the legacy format used by the legacy dvb-apps.
Other dvb tools from this packet are dvbv5-zap, dvb-fe-tool and dvb-format-convert.

==Example==

$ dvbv5-scan ~/dvbc-test
Scanning frequency #1 573000000
Lock (0x1f) Quality= Good Signal= 100.00% C/N= -13.80dB UCB= 0 postBER= 3.14x10^-3 PER= 0

New transponder/channel found: #2: 579000000
...
New transponder/channel found: #39: 507000000

The example above shows dvbv5-scan being asked to scan a list of channels, which it does and discovers a total of 38 channels. Note that each of these channels can have zero, one or multiple television signals encoded within it. For instance, in this case Channel 1 contains a video signal from a broadcaster known as "Globo", while Channel 2 is a digital radio channel known as "Trilhas Sonoras".

The output of the program is sent to the "db_channel.com" text file with several entries with will have not only the physical channel/transponder info, but also the Service ID, and the corresponding audio/video/other program IDs (PID), like:

[Globo]
SERVICE_ID = 5
VIDEO_PID = 288
AUDIO_PID = 289
FREQUENCY = 573000000
MODULATION = QAM/256
INVERSION = OFF
SYMBOL_RATE = 5247500
INNER_FEC = NONE
DELIVERY_SYSTEM = DVBC/ANNEX_A

dvbv5-scan is a command line frequency scanning tool for digital TV services. Its purpose is to attempt to locate the signals available on a digital TV tuner. Depending on the source, signals may be present on one or more of the possible channels, it is dvbv5-scan's purpose to find out which channels are actually in use.

dvbv5-scan scans for a list of physical channels/transponders and identifies if there is an MPEG Transport Stream (MPEG-TS) service available. A single "physical" channel (also called a transponder) may have multiple signals within it, encapsulated in MPEG-TS. Those virtual channels are called "services" in MPEG-TS terminology, and may have one or more audio/video/other elements inside. dvbv5-scan will also retrieve the information from the MPEG-TS Network Information Table (NIT) about the availablity of other channels in the stream. This information also includes the Service ID, which corresponds to the "station name" or "channel number" that you might find in a program listing or TV Guide.

dvbv5-scan looks for signals that are compliant with version 5 of the DVB API, and backward compatable with the older v3 DVB API. It was developed as part of DVBv5 Tools suite, which resides in the v4l-utils git repositiory [1]. It is based on a new channel/service file format that it is capable of supporting all types of DTV standards. It can also support the legacy format used by the legacy dvb-apps.

For other dvbv5 tools, please see the main article.

Example

$ dvbv5-scan ~/dvbc-test
Scanning frequency #1 573000000
Lock   (0x1f) Quality= Good Signal= 100.00% C/N= -13.80dB UCB= 0 postBER= 3.14x10^-3 PER= 0

Service Trilhas Sonoras, provider (null): digital radio
New transponder/channel found: #2: 579000000
...
New transponder/channel found: #39: 507000000

The example above shows dvbv5-scan being asked to scan a list of channels, which it does and discovers a total of 38 channels. Note that each of these channels can have zero, one or multiple television signals encoded within it. For instance, in this case Channel 1 contains a video signal from a broadcaster known as "Globo", while Channel 2 is a digital radio channel known as "Trilhas Sonoras".

The output of the program is sent to the "db_channel.com" text file with several entries with will have not only the physical channel/transponder info, but also the Service ID, and the corresponding audio/video/other program IDs (PID), like: 

[Globo]
	SERVICE_ID = 5
	VIDEO_PID = 288
	AUDIO_PID = 289
	FREQUENCY = 573000000
	MODULATION = QAM/256
	INVERSION = OFF
	SYMBOL_RATE = 5247500
	INNER_FEC = NONE
	DELIVERY_SYSTEM = DVBC/ANNEX_A
