I 've bought a Digital Devices Max S8 DVB-S2 Tuner Card, but there seems to be a tuning Problem with the TV-Server.
The card reports no signal all the time.
In DVBViewer it is working.

Has anyone an idea?

    Please post TV service log files so we can check why TV Server is reporting no signal.
    Also, please make sure that you restart the TV service after testing in DVBViewer. Otherwise DVBViewer can prevent TV Server from using the tuners successfully.

    Here it comes.
    As you told me cleared logs. Set log to DEBUG. Restarted TVService.
    Here is the logfile

    What mode are you using the tuner with? (quad LNB, quattro LNB, or unicable)

    It is connected to 4 lines of a multiswitch.
    Mode is set to: Quad LNB or 4 multiswitch lines
    In German "Quad LNB oder 4 Multiswitch Ausgänge", which is the first Option in DD-Control Center.

    Hmmm, interesting.
    I'm not sure what is wrong.
    How did you create the channels that you're testing?
    Could you please try to [temporarily] disable preloading for all tuners, and see if it makes any difference?

    The Channel list is from my previosly installed DD Cine S2, because a channel scan is not possible with the DD Max S8.
    Disabled Preloading -> restarted -> no difference

    I think either you or us will have to contact DD and ask them what could be wrong. This tuner is very new. Sometimes there are problems like this for a little while.

    4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

    Brief update... Hauppauge support responded quickly, stating that the "driver for all of our product confirm to the BDA format". Not sure what that means, but to test that, I downloaded a copy of Capture4Me, and indeed, it switches LNBs without any issues with minimal configuration (just set DiSEqC to 1.x A/B/C/D and select the...

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
