DVB-T LCN descriptor.

Post by emveepee »

I have a test stream that I loop and the LCN descriptor is not always being sent. Sometimes I get the correct LCN and sometimes it it is in the 5000 range depending on which NIT it picks up. Is there a way to wait longer in the HDHR scan?

I will need to double check but I think the HDHomeRun waits for up to 10 or 12 seconds for the channel number, moving on once detected.

How often is the LCN repeated on this channel?

Here is how many times tsduck found the LCN's in a 1 minutes mux https://pastebin.com/X6WKaDaP It looks like they were sent between 1 and 8 times in that minute. The one I noted was sid 0x4a75 which was twice.
