[00:05:48] itr2401: hi – is anyone around that can advise on how to interpret the output values of tzap? specifically the signal & snr values – are they in hex or something else?

[02:16:13] mack-: itr2401: I've never used it, but looking at the mythtv wiki article on it, it does seem to be a hexidecimal value as a percentage of ffff
[02:16:54] mack-: so to convert to a percentage, take the number it shows, convert to decimal and divide by 65535
[02:17:12] mack-: well, 655.35
[02:18:27] mack-: kinda weird to do something that way
[02:25:53] mack-: reading more on the linuxtv wiki, it looks like it's up to the tuner as to what gets displayed there. If the card is only supplying 8 bits of data, for example, the hex number shows repeats
[02:27:49] mack-: in general, to quote from the wiki: Not all the numbers are implemented in some drivers, but good is signal > 8000, status 1f (all bits set), snr (Signal to Noise Ratio) should be > 8000, ber (bit error rate) – low is good, unc (Uncorrectable blocks) – low is good.
[02:32:17] itr2401: mack – thanks ... im having some weird issue i am trying to track down .. very random signal breakup that only occurs under mythtv – same signal to tv no issues
[02:34:36] itr2401: signal (based on calcs) is fluctuating between 82 – 85%, SNR ~ 34.7%, ber is mainly all 0 except for the odd 00000036, 00000048, 0000000c etc every now and then
[02:36:09] itr2401: when I am watching & recording & play back the recording I am getting "[mpegts @ 0xa10f40] PES packet size mismatch", [mpeg @ 0xa18f60] buffer underflow i=0 bufi=2054 size=9657
[02:36:33] itr2401: then ultimately a lot of these – [mp2 @ 0x7fb5bc00e680] Header missing
[02:37:20] itr2401: when when watching at the same time via a tv – there is zero digital interferance / signal loss where the actualy mythtv recording "loss" occurs
[02:39:30] itr2401: unc – is a steady 000000c0 however
[02:41:05] mack-: usually more knowledgeable people active during the week
[02:41:51] mack-: it's still the weekend for the western hemisphere
[02:46:35] itr2401: thanks .. will keep switching things around
