You really are in a pickle, aren't you? :-(
I simply cannot see how you are having this problem.
You did mention that your setup is your total Media Centre. Anything to do with the way this is set up? (grasping at straws....)
I am looking forward to the other GB person who is now trying to use vlc to tell me how he is coping with the BBC. I'll keep you informed of course.
For those who have been following this thread and wondering how things are progressing re the solution of this vlc problem, following the agreement by both people, I have now introduced this Peter to another person who also lives in the same country as Peter N which will enable them to work together to resolve this hassle. I have asked them to keep me informed of any progress made. But, I was also told by the "other", who is from another mail list, that he has vlc working perfectly under Linux - no problems at all with any channel. The only bug in the ointment, which to me seems to be the possible problem, is that Peter N is using openSUSE with KDE while the "other" person is using Ubuntu. (They both use the Windows Media Center [Windows7], both use the same make of DVB-T card, both have settop boxes in other rooms to watch TV on "proppa" TV sets...) I don't know, I am simply guessing, and I await a report sometime down the line about how the problem was resolved.
