error description:
1. Autotune Cinergy 1200-S card
2. MP crashes during autotune and Windows closes MP
3. Mp can crash at any time during the autotune. Sometimes at the 1st transponder, sometimes almost at the end.
4. No issue with the other card (DVB-T).
5. When some channels are found, viewing them in MyTV (or listening to a radio channel in MyRadio) results in the same crash.

    the 4.8.11 is a beta driver. we had such issues allready in the past and nearly everytime the driver was the reason for the problems

    please try a older stable version of the Terratec Cinergy 1200-S BDA driver.

    hmmm. seems that the only BDA driver that is available is in beta stage. you may want to get in contact with the support of Terratec and ask them if there is a stable release.

    I have not found one on their webpages or other pages.
    :sorry:

    Hi Joce,

    my HTPC only has a Cinergy 1200-S, no 2nd card. It autotunes fine here with all RC4 SVN's. Maybe Terratecs BDA drivers cannot deal with this situation?

    Hi Hermann
    Which driver version do you use for the Cinergy 1200-S ? If it is not 4.8.11 (the one currently available on their website), can you please forward it to me (jocepub@tele2.fr) ?
    Thanks
    Joce

    Hi Infinityloop
    I have changed the driver and it seems to work much better now. Thanks for the advice.
    Maybe we should post this somewhere in the Wiki (version 4.80 of the BDA driver is stable). What do you think ?
