Summary:
Because I have some issues with my KNC Cards, I hope that some developers could provide some help and improvements, so that all KNC users could benefit.
Area:
TV Server
Description:
First, I would like to describe my TV-Server.
I have 2 KNC One cards, each with his own CAM module. Both cards are connected over a Spaun SAR 422 Diseqc switch to LNB 1 wich points to Hotbird 13.0 and LNB 2 which points to Astra 19.0.
1. Scanning engine not working reliable
What I see is that there are significant differences between card 1 and card 2. On card1 I got approx. 1500 channels where on card2 I got approx. 2500 channels. When I compare both logs, I can see that there are transponders wich I can receive on card 2 but not on card 1 there is no signal and vice versa. So for me it seems that there is an issue on the scanning engine. I attached both logs, maybee this can help.
2. CAM module on first card not always working
On card 1, I got somethimes the message in the logs that the CI module is not working. Even when I go to the tv configuration and I try to open the CI menu. This happens only on card 1 and never on card2. I already swapped both cards and cams with no success, it stays always on Card 1. So it can not be the hardware.
3. CI menu in TV-Server does not always open, or opens only once
An other issue, which is more cosmetic is that, when I go to card 1 I can open the ci menu, when I go then on card to, the ci menu does not open. I have to close the tv configuration, reopen it, ad then it works. But only 1 time.
4. KNC code needs Visual C++ 2008
Is it possible to adapt the KNC code, so that the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package isn't needed anymore? Because the Mepo 1.2 installation does not install it, but it installs the 2010 version. I read already some threads where users have the problem that after a fresh Mepo 1.2 installation the cards did not work, but after an update from Mepo 1.3 they do. This happens because they have the Visual C++ 2008 installed.
I would be glad to provide logs and do testing to ameliorate this cards.
