hauppauge PVR 150 problem loading modules

[Jim Stapleton]

OK, this little script seemed to get the job done, but... it's not
horribly fast/efficient (I found a tuner the same as 0x55 that works
with 0x67 also). For testing purposes, is there an mpeg player that
will gake input from stdin?

I.E. I would replace
cat /dev/cxm0 > test_$START.mpg &
with
cat /dev/cxm0 | some_app &

Thanks,

#!/bin/sh

INC=0.10
START=740.00
STOP=750.00
P=$START

cat /dev/cxm0 > test_$START.mpg &
TEST=$(echo "$P <= $STOP" | bc)
while [ "$TEST" -eq "1" ]
do
  echo $P
  pvr250-setchannel -m 2 $P
  P=$(echo "$P + $INC" | bc)
  TEST=$(echo "$P <= $STOP" | bc)
  sleep 2
done

kill $(ps -A | grep cat | grep cxm0 | cut -f 2 -d ' ')

noatun test_$START.mpg
