Convert w_scan channels.conf list to a DVBv5 dtv-scan-tables for tvheadend

If you happen to have created a channels.conf after a lengthy scanning process using w_scan:

w_scan -f c -c PL -X -S 1 -v

(in this case a Polish DVB-C scan with SR 6875)

then you can use the following line to create your own scan table (you have to run it as root to write to /usr/share):

cut -d: -f2,3,4,5,6 channels.conf | sort -u | awk -F["/:"] '{ printf "[CHANNEL]\n\tDELIVERY_SYSTEM = DVBC/ANNEX_A\n\tFREQUENCY = %s\n\tSYMBOL_RATE =  %s\n\tINNER_FEC = %s\n\tMODULATION = %s\n\tINVERSION = %s\n\n", $1, $3, $4, $5, $2 }' > /usr/share/dvb/dvb-c/pl-Toya

Macrosilicon "can't link" HDMI capture settings

"Can't link" USB capture device - cheap Elgato Camlink alternative built on MS 2109 Macrosilicon chip

EDIT: a more scientific approach to good color reproduction can be found here: http://ciko.io/posts/cheap_usb_hdmi/ and here: https://ciko.io/posts/cheap_usb_hdmi_2/

The "coffee" capture card isn't actually USB 3.0. It only has a blue-colored USB 2.0 connector. So definitely not as advertised. The difference between the black and coffee version is PCB version (1.5 vs 1.6 on coffee one) and - possibly - firmware that exposes modes above 30 fps for 1920x1080 through UVC.

Hovewer judging by the video motion I can say that the 50/60 fps modes in higher resolutions don't work as expected and the stream analysis shows that every 2nd frame is missing.

So in 1080p it always runs 30 fps (while in MJPG mode) or less. Other than that, it's well worth it's money. Good to carry around in your backpack.

FFMPEG based live stream delay line for Decklink

What is it for

FFMPEG based delay loop running in RAM for Blackmagic Decklink video cards. It's useful if you need a "profanity protection" buffer, but could also be used as a poormans instant replay.

How does it work

The idea behind this is to use exploit ffmpeg's concat filter as an intermediate buffer. The length of the delay line is set by the -t parameter before anullsrc in the example below ((or d after smptehdbars).

In my case I wanted PAL interlaced input and output. If you want to use different framerate change the format using the aproppriate -format_code parameter.
