KNC1 TV-Station DVB-S2 Twin won´t find SKY HD Programs (3 Viewers)

[Ballermann]

I just found this transponder / settings overview KLICK

 

[mm1352000]

Modulation has been "not Defined" before, I changed it to "QPSK2 (DVB-S2)"--> it´s working! (as to see on picture below)

Excellent!
Just out of interest, did you try the other two options that I suggested?

What would be the (best) way / the procedure to scan all transponders with the "correct" modulation?

You could edit the tuning detail file I suppose - replace all occurrences of "<Modulation>ModQpsk</Modulation>" with "<Modulation>ModNbcQpsk</Modulation>".
The file is in "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\TuningParameters\dvbs" on Vista and W7 (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\TuningParameters\dvbs on XP). You're looking for the "19.2°E Astra 1H,1KR,1L,1M.xml" file. It can be edited in any text editor.

One other question for you: can you tell me which network provider is configured in the tuner settings under "preferred network provider"?

If you have selected "generic" (default), could you please try with "DVBS" and see if the scan is still successful. This is important to ensure that any fix would also work on Windows XP.

I will come back later to it - actually my (MePo-)time ran out (for today)...

 

[Ballermann]

I had to come back to it - otherwise I just would be unsatisfied

I just make a new scan with a changed / new 19,2° E Astra-file at the moment (changed <Modulation>ModQpsk</Modulation>" with "<Modulation>ModNbcQpsk</Modulation>") - will let you know the result.

My config of the card / tuners (#1 & #2):
#1 & #2: Cam is enabled with value "0"
#1: no EPG grabbing #2: EPG grabbing
#1 & #2: no preloading
#1 & #2: stopping enabled
#1 & #2: preferred Provider: DVBS

 

[Ballermann]

soooo... back again to the result of the scan: it worked with the new/edited Astra-File!

I don´t know if it will work to use this file for a "normal" ( "complete") channel-scan or
if a channel-scan with the normal Astra file has to be done before and afterwards with the "modified-Modulation" File.

Attached you / everybody else with KNC-Problems can find the Astra-File I edited the way you described before (19.2°E Astra SKY1H,1KR,1L,1M.xml) ,
also the "normal" Astra-File I used before (19.2°E Astra 1H,1KR,1L,1M.xml)
and the satellites.xml which is modified the way to have both Astra-Files in the scan-menu.

If using this, be aware of not to make an automatic update of satellite list via menu!!!!

Thanks a lot for your help MM!!

Is there also a new file for the astra 23,5 ? I have problems with the dutch channels (12129)

Hello Tazzios

Is there also a new file for the astra 23,5 ? I have problems with the dutch channels (12129)

Which tuner please - the Twin (PCIe), or the single/older tuner (PCI)?
Make sure you click "update satellite list" before scanning - it looks like the tuning details may have changed recently.
If you still have problems then you can try to do a manual scan with the following parameters:

Frequency: 12129000 kHz
Symbol rate: 27500 ks/s
Polarisation: vertical
Modulation: 8 PSK (or "8 PSK2 (DVB-S2)")
Inner FEC rate: 2/3
Pilot: On
Roll-off: 0.35
