Hi friends ..
I using a TT s2-3200 HD pci card with DVBviewer Pro...and am trying to scan all transponders on 28.2E without success.
If I perform a complete scan of Astra using the ini file a large number of channels are missing when completed..particularly the HD channels.
ok ..so I then tried a manual scan of the missing HD channels...but DVB viewer refuses to even acknowledge the transponers exist ...showing no signal..
I know this is not correct as I have already scanned some of these transponders successfully ...but a manual scan of an HD transponder _already_ succesfully scanned using the out of date ini file ...refuses to produce anything..
Ok I figured I'll use Transedit and force a scan then export the result to dvbviewer ...
Again I chose a transponder carrying HD channels ....The scan completed lighting up the green PAT PMT STD boxes ...but nothing in NIT..
...NO channels are found ...though there is obviously signal present ..
I tried _all_ the BskyB HD transponders ....same result ...no channels found ..
Odd I thought ...I'll try transponders carrying SD channels ...and again ...no channels found..
As a last resort I tried a scan of one of the transponders carrying Arquiva channels (Freesat) ...No problems ...scan completed ...channels found..
WTF have sly done ..?
Have they found a way of preventing manual scans of their transponders ?????
Please can someone else try this and confirm my findings ..
either its a problem specific to my setup ..
..sly have done something to the NIT of their channels ..to prevent them being scanned..
Or I'm going mad !!!
finally ..is there anywhere I can download an up to date and complete 28.2E ini file which will work with dvbviewer ..
I've already tried a few ..and non of them are current..
