Hi and welcome littlej

Please use "stop card" instead of "pause card" for your FloppyDTV and use the "generic" network provider instead of the "DVBS" one. It is always a good idea to read the description of the settings before changing them. Those two settings in particular can cause big problems if you don't know what they do so it is best not to change them unless you *really need* to change them.

Thabk you mm.

I tried those settings already and with no luck :s still have the same error.
I'm desperate

Any more suggestions?

Thanks already!

Hmmm, okay.

Please could you post new logs with the default settings and disable MD*** (rename the config folder so that it is not used) - problems should be reproducible without MD***. Of course you will not be able to descramble, however we will at least see if that resolves the PMT issue.

hmm,
I think I solved it myself already

I had to install older drivers for my firewirecontroller because there is some kind of bug in multi-tumer setup in W7 for the floppy DVB cards

thank you so much though for your time and help!

Ahhh, the old legacy firewire driver requirement. Yes, things won't work properly without the correct firewire driver. Enjoy MP.
