HVR4000+WinTV-CI+ConaxCAM, some Channels inside subscription scrambled (1 Viewer)

[ARE2]

Hi,

got a big problem with my HVR4000 and my corresponding WinTV-CI. I've got a valid legal subscription (TNK - Telewizia na karte, polish pay TV) and only 2 channels of the whole package are unscrambled (TVP1 and TVP2) I'm totall confused why only these two are working and the rest shows me "Channel is scrambled" even when they should be descrambled.

I looked in to the tv logs and found this tunning TVN, thats one of the channels in the package thats not working:

Do I understand that correct, that the video stream is beeing decoded, but audio Fails??? If thats true why is it like that????? Is this a bug or can I do something to get it working!?! I've installed the newest drivers for the card and the wintv-ci and I'm using the latest MP + latest SVN and everything else is relly stable and running smooth!

Please help!? Maybe one of the Devs can take a look on the full logs??? I'm struggeling now for 3 Weeks with that problem and got no clue whats going wrong

Re: HVR4000 + WinTV-CI + Conax CAM and valid subscription, Some Channels still scramb

Hi,

got to reply on my own thread with something that hopefully helps a Dev or someone who knows more about Mediaportal, cause in another Thread a user called DieBagger had a look on my logs, as you can see in the following and maybe found something why I've got the problems described above!?! It just looks like there could be a problem with scrambled channels that have mpeg and ac3 sound cause Channels with only mpeg are descrambled on my side with the wintv-ci!?

https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...ng-sometimes-not-71653/index4.html#post563986

I still hope one of the DEVS could have a look at it and maybe say... yeah it's like that and thats a bug... or hej dude now go your wintv-ci is just crap and messes up the whole story.

Then I would finally know whats up and not seeking in the dark :\


So PLAESE help

THX & regards

Hi Again,

now I've even lost the two channels that could be descrambled two days ago and now the logs show the same problem with audio as before I'm totally stuck with this, as it seems that it has something to do with ac2 and mpeg streams and it seems that the provider added a ac3 stream and now I can't descramble this channels too

Logs attached:

And will post that problem now in the current SVN thread cause it could have something to do with some problems allready mentioned concerning ac3!?

Regards ARE2
