neumoDVB

[deeptho]

Can you help me please.

Manjora I got an error

make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/lib/modules/6.5.13-4-MANJARO/build'

You probably need to install some perl package.
What I do is read the error message: it says "you may need to install the Proc:rocessTable module".
Did you try that?

I made an effort to provide install instructions. Did you read them? Did you apply them?

If you ask for help, you should at least give some information...

With many reservations, but mostly with fear, I installed drivers and neumoDVB on Ubuntu 23.10. I had reason to be apprehensive because of some headaches when I first installed Deeptho's application, especially since I am a beginner in Linux.

Fortunately, with each release of neumoDVB, in addition to the improvements and new features, our developer has made it much easier for people like me to use his application.

Initially, I didn't want to install neumoDVB on the latest Ubuntu,23.10, because it is not yet an LTS version, and on the other hand, I know how many difficulties I had when I installed the drivers and neumoDVB the first time.

This time, the installation of the drivers went very well, without any problems. Installing neumoDVB didn't pose any problems either.

But unlike the drivers, for the application, I had to be more careful about every file and dependencies that needed to be installed. And there are a lot of them which require more attention and take time.

(As a user who had to install so many files, I wondered what kind of mind to have to know the right files for all the functions needed for such a complex application that has everything: analyzer, blindscan, player, etc.
Wow, and on top of that, it made it possible to make blindscan with 6903x/6909s cards fast and easy to use.)

Finally, I managed to use version 1.4 of neumoDVB and the benefit of viewing multiple services simultaneously.

The first test with neumoDVB is at 19.0E. The blindscan, displaying multiple services, went through without any problems.

Those who have the 6903x/6909x cards have every chance to congratulate themselves that they can use these cards.

I'm not sure, maybe I'm wrong, but if it weren't for these cards, who knows, maybe Deeptho wouldn't have bothered to develop an application highlighting the extraordinary possibilities of the STiD135 cards.

Without fear of exaggeration, I can say that @deeptho allowed us to see multiple services simultaneously and a complete application, all in one package, as they say.

For this reason alone, those who don't know how to work on Linux and are passionate about satellite reception should learn to work with this system. I could be an example. They won't regret it.

To those disappointed with the two stid135 cards(on Windows), and some have given up on them, I say they have made a mistake. Nothing is lost when you have the support of brilliant minds like @deeptho, but not forgetting @CrazyCat. I wish them good health.
Chapeau bas

neumodVB is installed on Ubuntu 23.10,
Kernel: 6.5.0-14-generic,
DE: Gnome 45.1,
WM: Mutter

The stid135 cards are actually quite good for most purposes. For specific niche applications, other
cards have advantages such as being able to tune below the regular bands, working better at very
low symbolrates (below 500 kS/s), or being able to discover PLS codes.

I have many cards, but the 6909x is the one I like best.

The chips even have capabilities for "raw data" acquisition, which would make them very useful for
software defined radio, but unfortunately due to the way the cards are wired that functionality cannot be
used. With some slightly different design, the 6903X could also do more than it does now.

A side reason is that there is actually documentation available. For many other cards nothing exists or
can be found. Also TBS are helpful in case of problems.

...

I will bore you if I repeat what I said about dvb cards.
But if we are talking about cards with the possibility to lock a low symbol rate below 500 Ks, I remind you that 6983/6903 are the best performing of all dvb-s2 cards for this function; when we see that there are more and more transmissions on satellite, especially radio services.

I remember that the first time I used the 6983 card, in 2014,I was amazed; it seemed a miracle, the card to find on C band on 62.0E a mux under sr 200 Ks. Then I also found with this card Dutch radio muxes at 16.0E, a radio with 142 Ks at 12.5W, 185 Ks at 30.0W, etc.

And the credit goes to @CrazyCat, who leveraged the demodulator to a performance that no other card has matched. I wonder what would have happened if you had such a card and exploited its possibilities.
These cards work between 100-45000 Ms symbol rate. By chance (and luck), it also locked a symbol rate of 87 Ks (See FlySat, at 27.5W).

But you seem to feel that only the "Himalayas" ( difficult card) challenge you. And that was a big plus for 6909x/6903x cardholders.

Fortunately, stid135 cards lock symbol rates below 500Ks/s even as designed and executed. I have locked the signal several times on different satellites.

If you want, I can lend you a 6983 to use.

No matter what we want, I/we are grateful for the performance achieved with stid135 cards.

added:
I will show you what the 6903x/6909x cards could do with neumoDVB.
Reception of this IPTV with the 6983 cards in real-time (and other dvb-s2 cards) at 27.5W.
Maybe you will have time to implement this function, too.

With Manjaro (Latest release 23.1.0) and the latest neumodvb version, I still have the stupid service list showing in the video screen instead of the chosen live channel.
Recordings of the current .ts files are present in the neumo folder, and play OK.

deeptho, any clues in neumolog? Nothing in console, just the two loading options .cfg lines.

First Cable frequency scan with neumodVB vers 1.4. Everything is ok.

This is obviously not working as it is supposed to. That probably means that you have misconfigured your xorg setup (e.g., no opengl support) or even worse that you are running wayland (not supported).

May be a Cinnamon problem, I'll find a desktop with something like Gnome with xorg.

low symbolrates (below 500 kS/s), or being able to discover PLS codes.

...

I'm returning to the low symbol rate below 500 Ks/s with the 6903x card after scanning Intelsat 901 at 27.5W.
Your application seems to disprove (and does well) your opinion about this low symbol rate with the Stid135 cards.

Here, blinscan all are found and locked with a 6903x low symbol rate below 500 Ks/s, a radio stream frequency. Both (11590 V,250,8/9 & 11597 V,500,8/9) muxes are Radio transmissions. And it is all the more remarkable as the signal on Intelsat 901 is well outside my reception area.

Only with tbs6983 I manage this with Crazyscan under Windows.
So it can (more?)with stid135 cards!

I added a neumoDVB scan of Intelsat 901 with the tbs6983 card. Compared to 6903x, the spectrum on 6983 looks like a disaster.
I hope to be excused for making such an observation. It verifies what you said earlier that you don't have the cards with demod STV091X based.

Maybe it's not worth investing time for such cards. But looking in perspective, what you are doing for Stid135 cards under Linux and @CrazyCat with TBS cards under Windows, I think, opens the door for receiver manufacturers.

Let's remember that the first receivers for MIS and PLL for us, simple receivers amateurs, were with dvb cards, and only afterward did these manufacturers release receivers with such specs/possibilities when they realized there was a good market for them. But that's another discussion.

In conclusion, you and @CrazyCat are both trailblazers in this field, even if both didn't consider it when creating applications.
Or if you don't consider yourselves as such, then I would say that you are a kind of interface between them and us, those who benefit from your creations, and even more, we benefit from your generosity as your applications are accessible to all, i.e. free, for which you have our thanks and gratitude.

 

[satesco]

Tests with neumoDVB 1.4 on MIS-PLS muxes at 5.0W with 6903x card.

The player finds at blindscan all only Italian muxes using Root code 16416, not Gold.

The 6902se card has no problems finding and locking muxes with the Gold code.

When searching manually with the Gold code, although it sees the signal, the app does not find the stream packets.

As in previous versions, the player finds and locks French radio muxes with a low symbol rate at 11454 H,542,1/2, and 11465 H,667,3/5,8PSK.

Italian MIS stream can be seen with the multi-services at once function.

I installed Manjaro PC and introduced the TV card, but I could not install Neomudvb. I am trying to make cmake. I would be very happy if you could help me how to solve the cmake problem.

I am encountering Cmake error

[deeptho]

Just reading the error message:
"
Could NOT find Boost (missing: Boost_INCLUDE_DIR regex context
program_options) (Required is at least version "1.69")
"
So it wants boost program options and you did not install boost_program_options.

I do not know or use manjaro myself. Actually, I have never heard of it, prior to it being mentioned here.
It should be a matter of figuring out the correct name of this package and then installing it.
