Hello,
just found http://www.vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=34722&sid= and I don't understand whether it's possible to try or not ?
I have a budget card, and my mplayer is able to play x264.
Anyone got an idea ?
Thank you very much,

I don't understand anything on that page but that there is some channel on Astra with x264 HDTV broadcasts.
To me it seems like vdr-xine would be enough, maybe even without any modifications.
With vdr-softdevice you would need to modify it to use x264 codec also.
I found some other infos here :
http://forum.gleitz.info/showthread.php?t=23244 (german) and http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=663660#post663660 (english) BUT it seems all windows related :-(
I don't think that vdr/xine can play it out of the box, I wish I am wrong.
Anyone have an idea how I can grab a test from linux ?

I find conflicting pid info on net, but some has to be correct :)
Try these combinations: PremierHDTV1:11915:h:0:27500:511:512:128 PremierHDTV2:11915:h:0:27500:767:512:128 PremierHDTV3:11915:h:0:27500:511:772:128 PremierHDTV4:11915:h:0:27500:767:772:128 PremierHDTV5:11915:h:0:27500:1290:214:128 PremierHDTV6:11915:h:0:27500:1291:214:128

I have put those in a channels-conf/dvb-s/PremiereHDTV and :
./szap -a 1 -c channels-conf/dvb-s/PremiereHDTV -r -n 1 (my budget is the second card in my system) And to play I use :
mplayer -vo xv -xineramascreen 1 - < /dev/dvb/adapter1/dvr0
Quality is amazing (better than all I was able to get with xine, no idea why ???) but for the time being, and all channels I try, I don't get any x264 content... and no HDTV, but I don't know whether Premiere send FTA HDTV testing or not ?
Anyone get further ?
