Introduction

This page is a rough draft to hopefully hold some useful info for uk dvb-t card users.

kaffeine is quite a nice ap for tv viewing but tuning can be difficult. however I found that if you know the mux frequency and the sid vid and aud. kaffeine will find everything in the mux


ScanChannelsBDA_UK.exe generates a logfile this is quite useful for kaffeine


Belmont Transmitter Example

Belmont was forgotten and it's details are not readily available.

the following is an edited version of a scan of the Belmont transmitter.


listed here are mux1, mux2, muxB, muxD muxA muxD


in theory all six mux's are consistent just appearing at different frequency locations belmonts transmitter config should be something like this


T 546000000 8MHz 3/4 1/2 QAM16 2k 1/32 NONE

T 690000000 8MHz 2/3 1/2 QAM64 2k 1/32 NONE

T 762166000 8MHz 2/3 1/2 QAM64 2k 1/32 NONE

T 834000000 8MHz 2/3 1/2 QAM64 2k 1/32 NONE

T 850000000 8MHz 3/4 1/2 QAM16 2k 1/32 NONE

T 786000000 8MHz 2/3 1/2 QAM64 2k 1/32 NONE


QAM16 == 3/4

QAM64 == 2/3

Mux 1


Frequency (Scanned) = 546000kHz Frequency (Actual) = 546000kHz

what next?

ok these are all six muxes for the uk to recieve Belmont i used a catagory 2 aerial (external) to get the first 4 muxes a Slx1p signal booster with 20db variable gain brought in the last two mux's (8.99 from argos)


hopefully specific transmitter info can be moved to a seperate page later. tidy up this page.

Faking it or how to tune with Kaffiene

You might have a problem scanning for channels with kaffiene
