Me TV

Failed to find PMT ID for service

Asked by Tekno

When starting Me TV, it gives popup error message which says: failed to find PMT ID for service

Also when I click name of TV channel, I get same error message and nothing else happens.

Terminal output:

Me TV 0.7.16
03/29/09 02:25:55: Setting display channel to 'YLE TV2' (2)
03/29/09 02:25:55: Waiting for signal lock ...
03/29/09 02:25:57: Got signal lock

and nothing else.

My DVB-T adapter:

05:06.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11)
05:06.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11)

Adapter and drivers are working correctly and TV channels work with gxine (using same channels.conf)

ls /dev/dvb/*
demux0 dvr0 frontend0 net0

Version of Me TV: 0.7.16

Distribution is Ubuntu 9.04 beta

The Gtk-Warning has just been fixed in the 0.8.0 development branch.

So, you are saying that you have other applications working with your current setup? Did you import or scan your channels?
