[MPlayer-users] slave mode and dvb

[Dominique Michel]

I start mplayer with

mplayer -ao jack, -fs -fixed-vo -slave -idle -capture -input
file=/home/dom/.mplayer/pipe

I can watch the dvb with

echo "loadfile dvb://1@" > /home/dom/.mplayer/pipe

It start on the first channel. According to slave.txt, I can change the
channel with

echo "dvd_set_channel 2 1" > /home/dom/.mplayer/pipe

but it doesn't work and I get nothing at stderr.

Also if I try

echo "loadfile dvb://2@1" > /home/dom/.mplayer/pipe

this doesn't work either and I get

NO CONFIGURATION FOUND FOR CARD N. 2, exit
Failed to open dvb://2@1

With

echo "loadfile dvb://1@2" > /home/dom/.mplayer/pipe

it doesn't work and I get nothing at stderr.

If I just press the h or k key, the channels are changing as expected.

Is it something I am doing wrong?

Dominique
