The command line steps described are also indispensable for quick setup and no frills viewing with DVB hardware under Linux. Note: 1 In other words, this article assumes that you have already both: * physically installed the device into, or attached it to, your system (refer to the manufacturer's instructions for such details) and * installed the drivers for your hardware and have the proper modules loaded (see "How to install DVB device drivers" for such details) Having completed such tasks, you should at least now have a /dev/dvb/adapter0/ directory. (If you have additional DVB devices installed in your system, they will be assigned an increased adapter number accordingly). Contents [hide] * 1 Using dvb-apps * 2 Using dvbsnoop * 3 Save a TV program to your hard drive * 4 Next steps - More feature rich viewing software Using dvb-apps 1. Obtain the dvb-apps package See the LinuxTV dvb-apps article for details on how to obtain the package. The dvb-apps package contains several useful tools. 2. Scan for the channels you can receive Refer to the (dvb)scan article for details of how to perform this step. Once familiar with the content of that article, you will recognize that this step can be summarized (in general form) by: mkdir ~/.{a,c,s,t}zap (dvb)scan /path_to_the_initial_scan_file > ~/.{a,c,s,t}zap/channels.conf 3. Tune a frequncy and program Refer to the zap article for details of how to perform this step. Once familiar with the content of that article, you will recognize that this step can be summarized (in general form) by: $ /usr/bin/{a,c,s,t}zap -r -c ~/.{a,c,s,t}zap/channels.conf "channel name" where, respective to the type of transmission, azap is used for ATSC, czap for DVB-C, szap for DVB-S and tzap for DVB-T. Note: If (dvb)scan was unable to correctly resolve the audio or video PID values for a channel in the previous step, a manual adjustment to the channels.conf file will be necessary to correct any inaccurately written PID(s) information. Such occurrences tend to be rare, but nonetheless, they do happen -- often, one only becomes aware of a problem with the PID values after unsuccessful attempts to tune a particular channel. The correct values may be determined using using dvbtraffic (see step 4.c) below). Another method for finding correct PID values for a channel is also outlined in the section entitled "A word about dvbscan and audio streams". 4. After you've tuned a frequency and program a) You could now start up your simple TV watching application and decode the stream you have tuned. For example, while keeping {a,c,s,t}zap running in the first console shell, open up another console and run mplayer /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 If you have more than one dvb device installed in your system, then you will have to pass the correct adaptor number. See the mplayer man page (i.e. in a console run "man mplayer") for a lengthy list of options. b) Or, you could now start up a datastreamer c) Or, alternatively, you may want to see some statistics of what's coming in for each channel and PID. Example: $ /usr/bin/dvbtraffic dvbtraffic which will access the /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 device. An example of output from dvbtraffic is: 0000 24 p/s 4 kb/s 37 kbit 0010 20 p/s 3 kb/s 31 kbit 0011 20 p/s 3 kb/s 31 kbit 0012 70 p/s 12 kb/s 106 kbit 0015 1 p/s 0 kb/s 2 kbit 0080 26 p/s 4 kb/s 40 kbit 0082 26 p/s 4 kb/s 40 kbit 0087 25 p/s 4 kb/s 38 kbit 0100 25 p/s 4 kb/s 38 kbit 0101 25 p/s 4 kb/s 38 kbit 0102 24 p/s 4 kb/s 37 kbit 0200 8567 p/s 1572 kb/s 12885 kbit 0201 4708 p/s 864 kb/s 7081 kbit 0205 926 p/s 170 kb/s 1392 kbit 0240 49 p/s 8 kb/s 75 kbit 0241 49 p/s 8 kb/s 75 kbit 028b 261 p/s 47 kb/s 393 kbit 0294 174 p/s 31 kb/s 262 kbit 0295 130 p/s 23 kb/s 196 kbit 02bc 75 p/s 13 kb/s 113 kbit 1fff 87 p/s 15 kb/s 131 kbit 2000 15329 p/s 2814 kb/s 23055 kbit -PID--FREQ-----BANDWIDTH-BANDWIDTH- This output is for a HDTV channel. In this example PID 200 is video 28b is audio. These values are in hex and need conversion to decimal(512,651) for use channel.conf. This is the record in channel.conf using the PID values from dvbtraffic: Nine High Def Gold Coast:746625000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_7_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_3_4:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_16:HIERARCHY_NONE:512:651:1138 And finally dvbdate Using dvbsnoop If the testing steps in the dvb-apps section above work fine, you can jump over this section here. On the other hand, dvbsnoop is a small, down-to-earth utility that is very handy for debugging and also seeing what is occuring with a dvb device (i.e. tuning works? data coming in? signal strong enough?). 1. Obtain the dvbsnoop package See the dvbsnoop article for details on how to obtain the package. 2. Testing with dvbsnoop Try things like dvbsnoop -help dvbsnoop -s pidscan This will give out a lot of numbers, but if you understand the system of DVB you should see if they make sense. Go for one of the PIDs (choose a right one which is a bit difficult as you don't know what they stand for unless you used the scan line above) and try: dvbsnoop -s bandwidth dvbsnoop The latter will spit out a lot of hexdumps - at least you receive something ;-) Save a TV program to your hard drive The handy thing about digital TV is, it comes in as a digital stream that you can save right away to your harddisk without any changes necessary to it. Therefore, hardly any CPU resources are needed -- just a lot of HD space (few GB per hour as the stream is MPEG-2 which is not as compressed as, for example, DivX/MPEG-4; it's even more as mostly one transport stream contains multiple PIDs). There are several ways to do this. For example: a) Using the combination of {a,c,s,t}zap and cat'ing the logical dvr device to save a program stream to disk If you have a channel tuned with {a,c,s,t}zap (and note that you MUST also be using the -r parameter to set up the logical dvr device in order for the following to work; see Zap for detail), open up another shell console and run (as root user): cat /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 > The result is that particular program stream will be written to disk, and you should be able to play it back at any later time with your favourite media player. b) Using the combination of {a,c,s,t}zap and test_dvr to save an entire transport stream to disk c) Saving to disk with dvbstream dvbstream is a useful program that, amongst other things, can save a DVB stream to disk. Method 1: First tune into a channel, as described above in the zapping step, and then next have dvbstream save a particular stream to file. For example: tzap 'BBC ONE' dvbstream 600 601 -o > bbc1.mpeg The values "600 and 601" are, respectively, the video and audio PIDs for the channel BBC ONE, as derived from the channels.conf file. So this is why it's important that you have your personal channels.conf file with all the PIDs so you can look them up. Method 2: Alternatively, instead of using a combination of *zap and dvbstream, you can use dvbstream alone provided you pass which frequency to tune and list the correct PIDs. For example: dvbstream -f 578000 600 601 -o >bbc1.mpeg Wait a few seconds and then press Ctrl+C to stop. You should then be able to open/playback the recorded file with any of your favourite media players (like Mplayer, (g)xine, noatune, etc. etc ) provided you have the correct decoders installed on your system (which, in general regards to DVB transmissions, are usually going to be MPEG-2, but can now also be MPEG-4). If the file is rather small, e.g. smaller than 1 MB after a minute of recording, then you can't receive this TV channel - maybe the reception is bad (too weak antenna signal) - or maybe your card's frequency is not tuned for the right sender? Watch out, some PIDs come up a few times (but for different frequencies). This might not be what you wanna do every day (unless you only watch BBC1 or you can easily memorise all your channels with their two PIDs) - but it's very fast and easy to do these steps for testing purposes. Next steps - More feature rich viewing software It is not the intention of this page to provide a detailed description of the use of DVB hardware with more complex Linux viewing software applications. Suffice it to say that you will have some choice. For example: * for light TV watching with a DVB device under Linux, MPlayer, Xine, Kaffeine, Klear and a few others are often selected. * alternatively, for "Media Center" type applications, the usual first suspects are Freevo, MythTV, and VDR, but there are others as well * you could use the streaming facilities of dvbstream and then watch the MPEG-2 stream (even possible on a different computer) with programs like Xine, MPlayer etc. For some further inspiration on what's possible with more advanced software usage see: * the Commented software list and * Example setups (note: you'll need to install the VDR Software Decoder Plugin if you want to use VDR for watching with a software decoding card). * Digital Video Broadcasting ?

The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions. dvbsnoop is a commandline DVB / MPEG stream analyzer utility, which is capable of debugging, dumping or viewing the information in such streams. It is a very usefool tool if you are in need to sniff data streams. dvbsnoop is part of the Tuxbox Project and is hosted on Sourceforge (see links below) Obtaining the dvbsnoop package If the dvbsnoop package is maintained in a repository available for your "distro", then you can obtain it with your package manager. For example: * To install it on a debian system: # apt-get install dvbsnoop * Using Fedora: Apparently, dvbsnoop isn't in any of the usual Fedora repositories at this time (Feb 2007).

So the main focus is the Internet connection, satellite TV is not reviewed. How does it work? So first we make the request (using land Internet connection) to the Sat-Server usually via a tunnel, after it will retrieve out info from Internet and it will send it to Satellite; in the end we would receive data from the it to our home using a parabolic antenna and a Sat Card. Satellite works very well with protocols, which have a little request data and a much bigger answer size. Although, a big time of answer is the biggest problem of satellite connection that may prevent using interactive services such as VoIP. The delay of answer may be considered basing on that a typical Sat distance is like 36.000 km, so an average overall delay time is 300-400 ms. To install the little satellite system we need: * DVB-S Card * Parabolic Antenna (Satellite Dish) * LNB Digital Converter Technical Information A satellite link as a classical Wireless link is very different from Wired link. It may cause some additional problems to solve, such as reachability, privacy problems and so on. Also there could be weather problems, particularly in snow or rain conditions. Antenna / Converter A parabolic antenna gives a very high gain in RX. A frequency that is being received from the satellite transponder is from 11GHz up to 12.7 GHz. The Digital Converter transforms it to 1-2 GHz and send signal to the DVB-S card receiver through the coax cable up to 30-40m. This documents assumes that your parabolic antenna is properly mounted and calibrated as well as proper converter (usually Ku-band) is used. DVB-S Receiver Card DVB-S card receives analog signals via coax cable and converts it to digital signals pretty like Ethernet card, after that the OS transforms it to a TCP/IP packets. DVB Setup 1. Install DVB-S Card and check if system recognized it Please note, that in most cases you need PCI version 2.1 or higher (check DVB card specifications). In practice it is Pentium-III or later systems. # lspci | grep -i "multimedia controller" 2. Make sure that kernel modules are loaded You have to use Alpine 1.7.10 release or higher that should load appropriate kernel modules for DVB card on startup. You may check if DVB devices are installed. # ls -la /dev/dvb* 3. Install LinuxTV Applications # apk_add linuxtv-dvb-apps 4. Create and edit file channels.conf This file contains settings for each Satellite you are using. For example the satellite Sirius-4 Nordic Beam has the following parameters: Freq - 12322Mhz, Polarization - vertical, Symbol Rate - 27.654711Ms/s, FEC -7/8. Anyway, all parameters you have to receive from ISP or find in the Internet. Please look at Satellite Parameters and SES SIRIUS. The following example is for "Sirius-4 Nordic Beam": # echo "Sirius4-Nord:12322:v:0:27500:0:0:0" >> /etc/channels.conf 5. Tune DVB Receiver Check configured channels: # szap -c /etc/channels.conf -q Tune the channel number 001: # szap -c /etc/channels.conf -n 1 In some cases you may need to run this command permanently in background because of a bug in kernel modules for some dvb cards. Option A: # szap -c /etc/channels.conf -n 1 > /dev/null 2>&1 & Option B: # start-stop-daemon --start --background --exec /usr/bin/szap -- -c /etc/channels.conf -n 1 6. Set up DVB network interface Your ISP provides you the PID, which is used for select a transmission between many signal from same frequency. # dvbnet -a 0 -p $PID # ifconfig dvb0_0 hw ether $MAC # ifconfig dvb0_0 $IP netmask 255.255.255.255 up Here $IP is any IP address, which does not match with any other adrres in your network. The $MAC you specify here is usually the MAC address of your DVB card, in some cases ISP calculates MAC address for you. In any case ISP sends data only for registered MAC addresses. Due to nature of satellite connection, the dvb interface receives packets, which have been originated from other sources, actually ether from land internet connection interface or, in most cases, from virtual tunnel device. So in order to allow receiving such packets the source validation should be disabled on dvb0_0 interface. # echo "0" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/dvb0_0/rp_filter Another way to achieve that is to allow the shorewall to control that using ROUTE_FILTER and routefilter parameters. 7. Test if satellite interface is receiving data You should see many packets for other clients of your ISP. # apk_add tcpdump # tcpdump -n -i dvb0_0 Authentication with ISP Before you receive your data via satellite your ISP should authenticate you as their registered client. There are several common techniques could be used: * Some ISPs use the "Proxy Authentication", when you used their proxy, you also need to give login and password to continue the request. Once done, the ISP use your IP address to calculate your MAC address, to which send the answer. * Some other ISPs require you make a VPN connection (using your login and password) first, then they will control your registration account (where they retrieve your MAC address) and will send data to your card (your MAC address). * If you have static public IP, perhaps, the most convenient way is when ISPs suggest making a GRE/IPIP tunnel, which is used to sent authenticated requests to ISP satellite server. Consequently ISP sends back answers via satellite you are connected to. Here is an example of setting up GRE tunnel with a ISP: 1. Make static routes All queries to DNS servers of your land ISP should go via land line. # route add $DNS1 gw $DEFAULT_LAND_GATEWAY # route add $DNS2 gw $DEFAULT_LAND_GATEWAY GRE packets should always go via land default gateway. # route add $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP gw $DEFAULT_LAND_GATEWAY It is assumed that $DEFAULT_LAND_GATEWAY is default gateway given by the land ISP, $DNSx are your DNS servers provided by the land ISP and $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP is remote IP of GRE tunnel of the satellite ISP. Changes of default route will be made after a tunnel interface is created. 2. Make GRE tunnel and setup tunnel interface # apk_add iproute2 # modprobe ip_gre # modprobe tun # ip tunnel add tun0 mode gre local $MY_STATIC_IP remote $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP ttl 250 # ifconfig tun0 $LOCAL_TUN_IP pointopoint $REMOTE_TUN_IP up Parameters of a tunnel such as $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP, $LOCAL_TUN_IP, $REMOTE_TUN_IP are provided by the satellite ISP. Now make new default route that goes via tunnel interface. So most requests will go via GRE tunnel to satellite ISP with source IP as $LOCAL_TUN_IP. Answers expected via dvb interface for destination IP as $LOCAL_TUN_IP. # route del default # route add default dev tun0 3. Test satellite internet connectivity # ping wiki.alpinelinux.org # tcpdump -n -i tun0 # tcpdump -n -i dvb0_0 host $LOCAL_TUN_IP Sharing Satellite Internet Connection It is assumed that we need to share the satellite internet with clients in a local network that already is connected via second Ethernet interface to satellite internet machine. This requires enabling IP forwarding, set up simple SNAT masquerading and traffic filtering rules. The easiest way is to use Shorewall for that purpose. 1. Install shorewall # apk_add shorewall 2. Set up shorewall.conf IP_FORWARDING=yes ROUTE_FILTER=No CLAMPMSS=Yes # See RFC2923 3. Set up zones inet ipv4 loc ipv4 tun ipv4 dvb ipv4 4. Set up interfaces loc eth1 detect routefilter inet eth0 detect norfc1918,routefilter tun tun0 - norfc1918,routefilter dvb dvb0_0 - 5. Set up policy loc all REJECT info dvb all REJECT info all all DROP info 6. Set up SNAT masquerading in masq tun0 eth1 7. Set up params #This IP address are provided by the satellite ISP SAT_ISP_GRE_IP= LOCAL_TUN_IP= 7. Set up rules SECTION ESTABLISHED REJECT dvb fw:!$LOCAL_TUN_IP SECTION RELATED REJECT dvb fw:!$LOCAL_TUN_IP SECTION NEW DNS/ACCEPT fw inet Ping/ACCEPT fw inet #Allow Web/FTP queries via GRE tunnel to ISP # Answers come as RELATED/ESTABLISHED traffic via DVB Web/ACCEPT fw tun Web/ACCEPT loc tun FTP/ACCEPT fw tun FTP/ACCEPT loc tun Ping/ACCEPT fw tun Ping/ACCEPT pr tun 8. Set up tunnels gre inet $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP Conclusion This document reviewed just basic ideas how to setup and share satellite internet connection. Further releases of Alpine Linux will include start up and configuration scripts (see Mailing Lists). Note, that more advanced traffic routing is beyond of scope of this document. Another advanced topic that is beyond of scope is how to use remote proxy/VPN services to protect/encrypt your Satellite traffic against grabbers. This configuration may protect HTTP/POP3 and other types of data against unauthorized grabbing with attempts to sniff personal mail, electronic addresses and other information.

The command line steps described are also indispensable for quick setup and no frills viewing with DVB hardware under Linux. Note: 1 In other words, this article assumes that you have already both: * physically installed the device into, or attached it to, your system (refer to the manufacturer's instructions for such details) and * installed the drivers for your hardware and have the proper modules loaded (see "How to install DVB device drivers" for such details) Having completed such tasks, you should at least now have a /dev/dvb/adapter0/ directory. (If you have additional DVB devices installed in your system, they will be assigned an increased adapter number accordingly). Contents [hide] * 1 Using dvb-apps * 2 Using dvbsnoop * 3 Save a TV program to your hard drive * 4 Next steps - More feature rich viewing software Using dvb-apps 1. Obtain the dvb-apps package See the LinuxTV dvb-apps article for details on how to obtain the package. The dvb-apps package contains several useful tools. 2. Scan for the channels you can receive Refer to the (dvb)scan article for details of how to perform this step. Once familiar with the content of that article, you will recognize that this step can be summarized (in general form) by: mkdir ~/.{a,c,s,t}zap (dvb)scan /path_to_the_initial_scan_file > ~/.{a,c,s,t}zap/channels.conf 3. Tune a frequncy and program Refer to the zap article for details of how to perform this step. Once familiar with the content of that article, you will recognize that this step can be summarized (in general form) by: $ /usr/bin/{a,c,s,t}zap -r -c ~/.{a,c,s,t}zap/channels.conf "channel name" where, respective to the type of transmission, azap is used for ATSC, czap for DVB-C, szap for DVB-S and tzap for DVB-T. Note: If (dvb)scan was unable to correctly resolve the audio or video PID values for a channel in the previous step, a manual adjustment to the channels.conf file will be necessary to correct any inaccurately written PID(s) information. Such occurrences tend to be rare, but nonetheless, they do happen -- often, one only becomes aware of a problem with the PID values after unsuccessful attempts to tune a particular channel. The correct values may be determined using using dvbtraffic (see step 4.c) below). Another method for finding correct PID values for a channel is also outlined in the section entitled "A word about dvbscan and audio streams". 4. After you've tuned a frequency and program a) You could now start up your simple TV watching application and decode the stream you have tuned. For example, while keeping {a,c,s,t}zap running in the first console shell, open up another console and run mplayer /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 If you have more than one dvb device installed in your system, then you will have to pass the correct adaptor number. See the mplayer man page (i.e. in a console run "man mplayer") for a lengthy list of options. b) Or, you could now start up a datastreamer c) Or, alternatively, you may want to see some statistics of what's coming in for each channel and PID. Example: $ /usr/bin/dvbtraffic dvbtraffic which will access the /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 device. An example of output from dvbtraffic is: 0000 24 p/s 4 kb/s 37 kbit 0010 20 p/s 3 kb/s 31 kbit 0011 20 p/s 3 kb/s 31 kbit 0012 70 p/s 12 kb/s 106 kbit 0015 1 p/s 0 kb/s 2 kbit 0080 26 p/s 4 kb/s 40 kbit 0082 26 p/s 4 kb/s 40 kbit 0087 25 p/s 4 kb/s 38 kbit 0100 25 p/s 4 kb/s 38 kbit 0101 25 p/s 4 kb/s 38 kbit 0102 24 p/s 4 kb/s 37 kbit 0200 8567 p/s 1572 kb/s 12885 kbit 0201 4708 p/s 864 kb/s 7081 kbit 0205 926 p/s 170 kb/s 1392 kbit 0240 49 p/s 8 kb/s 75 kbit 0241 49 p/s 8 kb/s 75 kbit 028b 261 p/s 47 kb/s 393 kbit 0294 174 p/s 31 kb/s 262 kbit 0295 130 p/s 23 kb/s 196 kbit 02bc 75 p/s 13 kb/s 113 kbit 1fff 87 p/s 15 kb/s 131 kbit 2000 15329 p/s 2814 kb/s 23055 kbit -PID--FREQ-----BANDWIDTH-BANDWIDTH- This output is for a HDTV channel. In this example PID 200 is video 28b is audio. These values are in hex and need conversion to decimal(512,651) for use channel.conf. This is the record in channel.conf using the PID values from dvbtraffic: Nine High Def Gold Coast:746625000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_7_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_3_4:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_16:HIERARCHY_NONE:512:651:1138 And finally dvbdate Using dvbsnoop If the testing steps in the dvb-apps section above work fine, you can jump over this section here. On the other hand, dvbsnoop is a small, down-to-earth utility that is very handy for debugging and also seeing what is occuring with a dvb device (i.e. tuning works? data coming in? signal strong enough?). 1. Obtain the dvbsnoop package See the dvbsnoop article for details on how to obtain the package. 2. Testing with dvbsnoop Try things like dvbsnoop -help dvbsnoop -s pidscan This will give out a lot of numbers, but if you understand the system of DVB you should see if they make sense. Go for one of the PIDs (choose a right one which is a bit difficult as you don't know what they stand for unless you used the scan line above) and try: dvbsnoop -s bandwidth dvbsnoop The latter will spit out a lot of hexdumps - at least you receive something ;-) Save a TV program to your hard drive The handy thing about digital TV is, it comes in as a digital stream that you can save right away to your harddisk without any changes necessary to it. Therefore, hardly any CPU resources are needed -- just a lot of HD space (few GB per hour as the stream is MPEG-2 which is not as compressed as, for example, DivX/MPEG-4; it's even more as mostly one transport stream contains multiple PIDs). There are several ways to do this. For example: a) Using the combination of {a,c,s,t}zap and cat'ing the logical dvr device to save a program stream to disk If you have a channel tuned with {a,c,s,t}zap (and note that you MUST also be using the -r parameter to set up the logical dvr device in order for the following to work; see Zap for detail), open up another shell console and run (as root user): cat /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 > The result is that particular program stream will be written to disk, and you should be able to play it back at any later time with your favourite media player. b) Using the combination of {a,c,s,t}zap and test_dvr to save an entire transport stream to disk c) Saving to disk with dvbstream dvbstream is a useful program that, amongst other things, can save a DVB stream to disk. Method 1: First tune into a channel, as described above in the zapping step, and then next have dvbstream save a particular stream to file. For example: tzap 'BBC ONE' dvbstream 600 601 -o > bbc1.mpeg The values "600 and 601" are, respectively, the video and audio PIDs for the channel BBC ONE, as derived from the channels.conf file. So this is why it's important that you have your personal channels.conf file with all the PIDs so you can look them up. Method 2: Alternatively, instead of using a combination of *zap and dvbstream, you can use dvbstream alone provided you pass which frequency to tune and list the correct PIDs. For example: dvbstream -f 578000 600 601 -o >bbc1.mpeg Wait a few seconds and then press Ctrl+C to stop. You should then be able to open/playback the recorded file with any of your favourite media players (like Mplayer, (g)xine, noatune, etc. etc ) provided you have the correct decoders installed on your system (which, in general regards to DVB transmissions, are usually going to be MPEG-2, but can now also be MPEG-4). If the file is rather small, e.g. smaller than 1 MB after a minute of recording, then you can't receive this TV channel - maybe the reception is bad (too weak antenna signal) - or maybe your card's frequency is not tuned for the right sender? Watch out, some PIDs come up a few times (but for different frequencies). This might not be what you wanna do every day (unless you only watch BBC1 or you can easily memorise all your channels with their two PIDs) - but it's very fast and easy to do these steps for testing purposes. Next steps - More feature rich viewing software It is not the intention of this page to provide a detailed description of the use of DVB hardware with more complex Linux viewing software applications. Suffice it to say that you will have some choice. For example: * for light TV watching with a DVB device under Linux, MPlayer, Xine, Kaffeine, Klear and a few others are often selected. * alternatively, for "Media Center" type applications, the usual first suspects are Freevo, MythTV, and VDR, but there are others as well * you could use the streaming facilities of dvbstream and then watch the MPEG-2 stream (even possible on a different computer) with programs like Xine, MPlayer etc. For some further inspiration on what's possible with more advanced software usage see: * the Commented software list and * Example setups (note: you'll need to install the VDR Software Decoder Plugin if you want to use VDR for watching with a software decoding card). * Digital Video Broadcasting ?

The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions. dvbsnoop is a commandline DVB / MPEG stream analyzer utility, which is capable of debugging, dumping or viewing the information in such streams. It is a very usefool tool if you are in need to sniff data streams. dvbsnoop is part of the Tuxbox Project and is hosted on Sourceforge (see links below) Obtaining the dvbsnoop package If the dvbsnoop package is maintained in a repository available for your "distro", then you can obtain it with your package manager. For example: * To install it on a debian system: # apt-get install dvbsnoop * Using Fedora: Apparently, dvbsnoop isn't in any of the usual Fedora repositories at this time (Feb 2007). In any regard, dvbsnoop is available for direct download from the Sourceforge project site using steps similar to the following:.

So the main focus is the Internet connection, satellite TV is not reviewed. How does it work? So first we make the request (using land Internet connection) to the Sat-Server usually via a tunnel, after it will retrieve out info from Internet and it will send it to Satellite; in the end we would receive data from the it to our home using a parabolic antenna and a Sat Card. Satellite works very well with protocols, which have a little request data and a much bigger answer size. Although, a big time of answer is the biggest problem of satellite connection that may prevent using interactive services such as VoIP. The delay of answer may be considered basing on that a typical Sat distance is like 36.000 km, so an average overall delay time is 300-400 ms. To install the little satellite system we need: * DVB-S Card * Parabolic Antenna (Satellite Dish) * LNB Digital Converter Technical Information A satellite link as a classical Wireless link is very different from Wired link. It may cause some additional problems to solve, such as reachability, privacy problems and so on. Also there could be weather problems, particularly in snow or rain conditions. Antenna / Converter A parabolic antenna gives a very high gain in RX. A frequency that is being received from the satellite transponder is from 11GHz up to 12.7 GHz. The Digital Converter transforms it to 1-2 GHz and send signal to the DVB-S card receiver through the coax cable up to 30-40m. This documents assumes that your parabolic antenna is properly mounted and calibrated as well as proper converter (usually Ku-band) is used. DVB-S Receiver Card DVB-S card receives analog signals via coax cable and converts it to digital signals pretty like Ethernet card, after that the OS transforms it to a TCP/IP packets. DVB Setup 1. Install DVB-S Card and check if system recognized it Please note, that in most cases you need PCI version 2.1 or higher (check DVB card specifications). In practice it is Pentium-III or later systems. # lspci | grep -i "multimedia controller" 2. Make sure that kernel modules are loaded You have to use Alpine 1.7.10 release or higher that should load appropriate kernel modules for DVB card on startup. You may check if DVB devices are installed. # ls -la /dev/dvb* 3. Install LinuxTV Applications # apk_add linuxtv-dvb-apps 4. Create and edit file channels.conf This file contains settings for each Satellite you are using. For example the satellite Sirius-4 Nordic Beam has the following parameters: Freq - 12322Mhz, Polarization - vertical, Symbol Rate - 27.654711Ms/s, FEC -7/8. Anyway, all parameters you have to receive from ISP or find in the Internet. Please look at Satellite Parameters and SES SIRIUS. The following example is for "Sirius-4 Nordic Beam": # echo "Sirius4-Nord:12322:v:0:27500:0:0:0" >> /etc/channels.conf 5. Tune DVB Receiver Check configured channels: # szap -c /etc/channels.conf -q Tune the channel number 001: # szap -c /etc/channels.conf -n 1 In some cases you may need to run this command permanently in background because of a bug in kernel modules for some dvb cards. Option A: # szap -c /etc/channels.conf -n 1 > /dev/null 2>&1 & Option B: # start-stop-daemon --start --background --exec /usr/bin/szap -- -c /etc/channels.conf -n 1 6. Set up DVB network interface Your ISP provides you the PID, which is used for select a transmission between many signal from same frequency. # dvbnet -a 0 -p $PID # ifconfig dvb0_0 hw ether $MAC # ifconfig dvb0_0 $IP netmask 255.255.255.255 up Here $IP is any IP address, which does not match with any other adrres in your network. The $MAC you specify here is usually the MAC address of your DVB card, in some cases ISP calculates MAC address for you. In any case ISP sends data only for registered MAC addresses. Due to nature of satellite connection, the dvb interface receives packets, which have been originated from other sources, actually ether from land internet connection interface or, in most cases, from virtual tunnel device. So in order to allow receiving such packets the source validation should be disabled on dvb0_0 interface. # echo "0" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/dvb0_0/rp_filter Another way to achieve that is to allow the shorewall to control that using ROUTE_FILTER and routefilter parameters. 7. Test if satellite interface is receiving data You should see many packets for other clients of your ISP. # apk_add tcpdump # tcpdump -n -i dvb0_0 Authentication with ISP Before you receive your data via satellite your ISP should authenticate you as their registered client. There are several common techniques could be used: * Some ISPs use the "Proxy Authentication", when you used their proxy, you also need to give login and password to continue the request. Once done, the ISP use your IP address to calculate your MAC address, to which send the answer. * Some other ISPs require you make a VPN connection (using your login and password) first, then they will control your registration account (where they retrieve your MAC address) and will send data to your card (your MAC address). * If you have static public IP, perhaps, the most convenient way is when ISPs suggest making a GRE/IPIP tunnel, which is used to sent authenticated requests to ISP satellite server. Consequently ISP sends back answers via satellite you are connected to. Here is an example of setting up GRE tunnel with a ISP: 1. Make static routes All queries to DNS servers of your land ISP should go via land line. # route add $DNS1 gw $DEFAULT_LAND_GATEWAY # route add $DNS2 gw $DEFAULT_LAND_GATEWAY GRE packets should always go via land default gateway. # route add $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP gw $DEFAULT_LAND_GATEWAY It is assumed that $DEFAULT_LAND_GATEWAY is default gateway given by the land ISP, $DNSx are your DNS servers provided by the land ISP and $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP is remote IP of GRE tunnel of the satellite ISP. Changes of default route will be made after a tunnel interface is created. 2. Make GRE tunnel and setup tunnel interface # apk_add iproute2 # modprobe ip_gre # modprobe tun # ip tunnel add tun0 mode gre local $MY_STATIC_IP remote $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP ttl 250 # ifconfig tun0 $LOCAL_TUN_IP pointopoint $REMOTE_TUN_IP up Parameters of a tunnel such as $SAT_ISP_GRE_IP, $LOCAL_TUN_IP, $REMOTE_TUN_IP are provided by the satellite ISP. Now make new default route that goes via tunnel interface. So most requests will go via GRE tunnel to satellite ISP with source IP as $LOCAL_TUN_IP. Answers expected via dvb interface for destination IP as $LOCAL_TUN_IP. # route del default # route add default dev tun0 3. Test satellite internet connectivity # ping wiki.alpinelinux.org # tcpdump -n -i tun0 # tcpdump -n -i dvb0_0 host $LOCAL_TUN_IP Sharing Satellite Internet Connection It is assumed that we need to share the satellite internet with clients in a local network that already is connected via second Ethernet interface to satellite internet machine. This requires enabling IP forwarding, set up simple SNAT masquerading and traffic filtering rules. The easiest way is to use Shorewall for that purpose. 1. Install shorewall # apk_add shorewall 2. Set up shorewall.conf IP_FORWARDING=yes ROUTE_FILTER=No CLAMPMSS=Yes # See RFC2923 3. Set up zones inet ipv4 loc ipv4 tun ipv4 dvb ipv4 4. Set up interfaces loc eth1 detect routefilter inet eth0 detect norfc1918,routefilter tun tun0 - norfc1918,routefilter dvb dvb0_0 - 5.

Further releases of Alpine Linux will include start up and configuration scripts (see Mailing Lists). Note, that more advanced traffic routing is beyond of scope of this document. Another advanced topic that is beyond of scope is how to use remote proxy/VPN services to protect/encrypt your Satellite traffic against grabbers.
