Digital Devices Cine CT: Some channels is reported as scrambled (1 Viewer)

The problem is not the CAM.

Are you using the latest drivers from Digital Devices, or did you install drivers from a CD?

I downloaded the latest drivers from DD: DigitalDevices-DVB-Driver-2.4.0.60-x86.msi

I found something interesting here:

Do you know if this tvengine is included or compatible with Mp1.2.3Final?
I'm not sure how to install this tvengine, i would be grateful if someone could guide me.

It is included.

It would be a bad idea to install it.

I'm sorry to give such short answers. I do think I know what the problem is but I've been so busy that I haven't had time to put together a patch for you yet. I'd do it now except that I'm at work. It also seems very strange to me that you are the first person reporting problems with a Cine CT. Nevertheless, I will try to provide the patch for you in the next 24 to 48 hours. Please be patient for a little while longer...

Hello again fontaine

Here is a patch for you to try.
1. Stop the TV service.
2. Close TV Server configuration.
3. Take a backup of the TVLibrary.dll in your TV Server install folder (typically C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server).
4. Download and extract the attached DLL into your TV Server install folder, replacing the standard version.
5. CI should be working now.

It seems to be working perfectly now. No more channel is encrypted messages. I can watch a channel and record another simultaneously without problems.
Tuningtime is much faster, 2-4sek. Ci menu is working.
Can you tell me little about the changes you had to do in the patch?

Big thanks to you for your help and time.

Best regards,
Fontaine

Thanks for testing.

For some reason TV Server was not treating your tuner as a Digital Devices tuner. It saw the CI interface, but then ignored it even though you had ticked "...CAM is present...". This could be due to changes in the latest DD driver because nobody has reported such problems in the past.

Hi and thanks again for your patch.
It it still working, but i have problems with two channels that i know of. I'm not sure if this is related to your patch but i don't think i had this problem before.

I'm experincing heavy stuttering of picture and sound on channel Investigation Discovery. The channel works fine for 30sek and then starts stuttering progressively worse, until it is unwatchable after about 2min.

On Canal9 i'm seeing heavy glitching and pixelation but it seems to be fine when commercials are on. I didn't include this channel in the logs because TVshop is on and the channel works fine then.

I have tried to change codecs from PDVD12 to LAV and it didn't help. Changed back to PDVD12.
I have tried to change CAM from Smith Conax CAM to Alphacrypt CAM Classic. It didn't help. CI menu works fine. Currently using Alphacrypt CAM Classic.
I have uninnstalled the terratec card and reinstalled MP1.2.3Final as i want to retire the terratec card and get a DD Duoflex to get 4 tuners.

Logs are attached.

Hello again

Hi and thanks again for your patch.

You're welcome.

This has nothing to do with my patch.
I suspect this may be related to teletext.
Try disabling teletext subtitles.

On Canal9 i'm seeing heavy glitching and pixelation but it seems to be fine when commercials are on. I didn't include this channel in the logs because TVshop is on and the channel works fine then.

I can't help with this unless you can provide logs.
