Hello everybody,
I usually use vlc to watch tv and I use the w_scan program on linux to
create a file (.m3u) with the list of available channels. Unfortunately
I can't find an alternative to w_scan for Windows and I was wondering if
you could tell me some python library that allows me, easily, to
interface with the device and get the channel list.

Thanks in advance for your attention.

UNTESTED... But if it works means no change to your procedures...

Presuming you are using W10 or later...

Activate the Windows Subsystem for Linux ([old style] Control Panel /
Programs / Programs and Features... Turn Windows Features On or Off...
Scroll down, it's the third from the bottom)

Windows "Microsoft Store"; Search "Debian"; Download/Install (set a
log-in account/password). (Unfortunately, it's not the most recent version
-- still on Buster...)

Open Debian instance console (to my knowledge, no graphical
applications are supported); do normal stuff to bring apt up-to-date.

Install and test. Windows partitions are accessible as

First of all, thank you for your reply. Actually I already have a handy
work around to use w_scan because I have a VM with linux (ubuntu)
installed. I was just looking for a python package/library that would
allow me to write a wrapper around. I would also be satisfied with
finding documentation that describes the protocol to communicate with
the dvb interface and be able to write an app that produces the list of
available channels. Any advice, suggestion or pointing is welcome.

For the protocol... You might need to locate the source code for
w_scan. Perhaps https://github.com/tbsdtv/w_scan
