How can we play or process a tv channel with ffplay, ffmpeg from a tuner on tv card on linux. I am able to play with vlc when I tune a tuner wtih szap with command szap-s2 "channel" -a 0 -H . However, I could not achieve this with ffmpeg. I also want to play multiple channels at same time on one transponder.

  • "I also want to play multiple channels at same time on one transponder." Have you found a solution to this already? – scaryguy Sep 08 '14 at 17:52
  • Hi scaryguy, there are tools streaming tv channels from tv cards through some urls. I am able to any processes using this streaming urls. [tvheadend](https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/Download/2) is one of this streaming tools which reads from tvcards and publish tv channels on some urls. In order to play multiple channels you will just call another script like `ffmpeg localhost:9981/..` . If they are on same transponder or there is another empty transponder there will be no problem. – mustafa.yavuz Sep 24 '14 at 08:09
  • apparently ffmpeg can receive from a properly "pre configured" video4linux dvb tuning device: https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-user/2011-December/003955.html https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html#Video-and-Audio-grabbing – rogerdpack Dec 30 '15 at 20:15
  • Thank you for your answers, however it has been long time I asked this question so I am not able to test your recommendations. Somebody may test and write results here. – mustafa.yavuz Dec 31 '15 at 10:51
