Could you spot any problems with the help of my ts dumps?

Hi folks

I haven't forgotten about this - it is on my list of things to do, but I've been very busy recently. I had a quick look at FreakyJ's dumps when they were first uploaded and to me it appears like there are no names for those channels. A deeper investigation would be required...

Hi, I also have a similar problem even though I basically only get hd channels and a bunch of unknown channels. Check my post here.

https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...-driver-update-only-hd-channels-found-101896/

It was working fine before a driver update. It might be something with the drivers, but then DVBviewer has no problems using the same drivers.

Right, and my problem was a faulty driver for my tv card.

I spent at least half a day deeply examining the code in TsWriter and looking at your dumps on a byte-by-byte basis. I found one minor issue (which you've seen in the internal thread) which shouldn't make any difference to this discussion. That was a lot of effort but no reward, and at this point I'm at a loss to explain why the channels would appear. I have some unknown channels in my channel list but I can explain the reason for them - they are caused by channels that have PMT but are not listed in the SDT. This is a technique that some providers use to hide test channels. If you delete an unknown channel and then manually rescan, does the unknown channel come back?
