Converting dvb chanels to freevo config

2005/11/17 00:35:00

So you have used scan from the dvb-utils package and generated a channels.conf for mplayer now you need to create a CHANNELS section for freevo.

awk -F":" '{ print "(@" $13 ".dvb.guide@,@" $1 "@,@" $1 "@)," }' ~/.mplayer/channels.conf |sed "s/'//g;s/@/'/g"

It’s a bit of a hack but it works.
You can then pick the Channels that you want in.
Would be nice to get the chanel numbers and sort on that first then also a simple way to exclude the TUTV chanels.

This also assumes that you want to use the epg from the dvb card and not another source.
