dev around Technisat Cablestar 2 (4 Viewers)

[liborc]

Still no luck here...

Hello,

I really envy Eagle who has managed to get his setup to work... It just doesn't happen for me. I installed the latest CVS, tried to do all appropriately, but my Airstar still doesn't work.

I am eager to receïve any sort of indication that could lead me to solving this problem. I guess the issue could be the driver version, OS version, card version, butr all this seems to be pretty standard on my computer:


OS: Windows XP (French), SP2, all latest windowsupdate patches installed
Card version: not sure how to get it
Driver version: 4.2.10.9999

Maybe, however, I am missing something important or I am just being stupid... Please help me out whichever one of the two is true! ;-)

Thanks in advance for any help,


Libor

Cardversion is 1.0
Driverversion is 4.3.2 (latest)

new fix in the next CVS.

But it's hard without the card to test because the technisat sdk is not really documented on AirStar specific settings.

I am waiting for your feedback.

Hi mbb

I tested the last CVS (Nov 7th evening) but the "bandwith"-column in the "tblDVBTMapping" hasn't been updated yet. Maybe you can have a look at it again?

I have installed the new driver, installed the latest CVS and .NET 2.0 but still no go. Autotune finds no channels although it shows 100dB of signal strength and 100% of signal quality.
I am not sure what bugs are fixed by the latest addition mbb made to the cvs. According to him, my problem may be due to the lack of the offset parameter support in his AirStar 2 implementation.

Mbb says the 125 value for offset is default in the AirStar 2. As 125 is the value used for dvb-t broadcasts e.g. in Germany, it works for eagle and not for me (my local - Czech Republic - offset value is supposed to be 167) . If someone here is also in the 167 and/or other non-125 zone, I would really appreciate if you could share your experience in this thread so that we could help mbb debug his code.

Thanks in advance,

Libor

I checked how offset works.

In fact It's used only during autotune to calculate the next frequency to scan.

new scan frequency = current scan frequency + offset

It works and there are nothing specifics to set or to store for Airstar. (wrong hypothesis)

But If another Airstar user could share his experience, He's welcome.

For the Bandwith store problem I will more investigate when I will install all stuff to developp with .NET 2.0

For Bandwidth, this time I test by fix some values in sources to simulate an AirStar, and I think I got it.

I posted the fix and I hope It will be in the next CVS.

For the libor problem, I dont know what to do :?
I dont know if it's relevant but a possible way here:

I will have a look at it tonight and give a short report here

which frequences does DVBViewer show? Is it possible to get steps of offsets out of these frequences? Delete all frequences out of your dvb-t.xml which you don't need. Does it work then?

But if DVBViewer works I can't believe that there are differences between the offstets of CR and Germany. Or is DVBViewer regionalized for CR?
