Hello, I checked with /var/log/messages, it said something like this:
-
[EMAIL PROTECTED] zhuhx]# cat /video/channels.conf
16 - JCTV:12581:h:S146.0E:25600:165:100:0:0:16:0:0:0
17 - TBN:12581:h:S146.0E:25600:166:104:0:0:17:0:0:0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] zhuhx]# tail /var/log/messages

so it looks like not a softdevice problem, the frontend didn't lock.
my question is why it try "tp 112581",not "tp 12581", because
from /video/channel.conf, it gives "12581".
please help on this!
Thanks
