Value used for PLS Mode - Gold

Steven Matthews

I was wondering if anybody could tell me the value that is assigned to PLS Mode Gold?

It seems that TVHeadend is the only package that can tune to French channels on 5W (11509) using PLS 50416 - Gold.

I know the stream id passed is -- stream_id = pls_type << 26 | pls_code << 8 | is_id, so using gold 0x4 would be 80015361.

However I can't get it working.

I have used TVHeadend a lot in the past, but I need to be able to multicast these channels.

Any help would be appreciated.

I am using TBS5927.

Thanks

Hi Steven,

I'm unsure what you mean by this -

The channels tune in fine with PLS 50416 with a TBS card in TVHeadend. These feeds are how I watch all of the French channels on my install -

You need to make sure you have the open source TBS drivers installed and not the official TBS ones. Multistream doesn't seem to work in Linux on the official ones, not in TVHeadend at least.
