Arch Linux

Yes, i will update it soon. I need to set up my dvb again after moving.

Can you please update to version 1.4.0.54?

Please check this patch to PKGBUILD, I am not good at it, but it seems to work:

Would it be possible to add this patch: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/161463266/black_screen_fix_patch.diff
According to the Ubuntu bug report foggybrain has successfully applied the patch to this AUR package: https://bugs.launchpad.net/me-tv/+bug/1179606

Honest advice download me-tv_1.3.7-0.2_amd64.deb and extract and install into appropriate directories. Me-TV 1.4 is severely broken and feature lacking.

Me-TV 1.3 allows for multi cards to record different stations at once. It has a better inbuilt channel scanner. It can import channel.conf, dvb region files as well. In the settings you can set before and after recording adages. You can pick video display engine, and audio engine like Pulse Audio. Features removed in 1.4 rewrite.

@kataja: If you downgrade to libdvbpsi 1:0.2.2-1 and vlc 2.0.8.a-1 me-tv should work. Don't forget to also add "IgnorePkg = vlc libdvbpsi" to pacman.conf.

Foggybrain, what's your system configuration?

I'm asking just because me-tv is not working in my PC with latest packages and RTL2832u DVB-T stick.

Please un-flag out of date, program fine, errors with recent upgrades to vlc and libdvtpsi are stopping program working.

sorry for flagging

Deine Vermutung kann ich bestätigen, mein gnome-common Paket war nicht aktuell.
Danke.

Ich kann den Fehler nicht nachvollziehen. Meine gnome-common Version ist:
pacman -Q gnome-common
extra/gnome-common 3.7.4-1

Das Paket stellt die Datei /usr/bin/gnome-autogen.sh bereit. Dort wird die automake Version überprüft und wird bei mir definitiv nach 1.13 gesucht.#

Bei mir baut sich me-tv egal ob mit yaourt oder direkt per makepkg ohne Probleme.
