Cant find any channels on Thor 2/3, no signal on the transponders. It works fine on Tvengine3-03-03-2007--01-58h--Rev13204, and older...maybe some newer snap shots to. The channels on sirius 3 are all detected.

Is it only my and tomeliten4 that has got this problem? I have the exact same problem as him. I don't get signal on the transponders for Thor 2/3 but for Sirius. And as I have Canal Digital and dont Viasat I only want to tune the Thor satellite. Tomeliten4 is going to send me the revision that worked for him so I can test it. If that works Im a little bit more happier than I am right now but I would like to be able to use the latest release. Could anyone look in to this?

I have noticed that if I do a scan with the tv-server and get the problem and then want to use Mediaportal standalone I cant get any signal there either. I have to disconnect the satellite cable and connect it to my original box, move my subscription card and then zap to a channel with it. Then I can move the cable back to the floppy dtv and the same with the subscription card and everything works in the Mediaportal standalone verision. Maybe that info will help you a little, or not. I really hope so anyway. :)

Thanx!

I can now confirm that I have the same problem as tomeliten4. It works fine in Tvengine3-03-03-2007--01-58h--Rev13204, but not in any of the other svns I have tested, so something must have accidentally happend or has been changed to the later svns.

If I try a newer svn I get no signal from the transponders and if I uninstall the newer tv-server and installs Rev13204 and scanning channels I get the same problem. It seems like the newer svns are locking something. The only way that I have discovered to fix this is to move my satellitecable and my subscriptioncard from my tv-card to my digitalbox, zap some channels and move back the cable and the card to the computer. Now I can scan channels with Rev13204 and everything works fine. If I try a newer one again, the same problem occurs.

Please can someone take a look at this? I'm getting a little bit frustrated as it seems that no one is answering either my forumposts or tomeliten4's. I'll gladly help out the developer, who looks in to this, as much as I can with my systemsetup, logfiles and configurations etc.

Thanks in advance!

I do understand you right. Not so fun to be alone with problems. ;)

What I don't understand is that there doesnt seem to be anyone else who has the same problems as you and I. The one thing I can see that we have in common is the Floppy DTV-S tv-card. Is there anyone else who has this card and got it to work with the tv-server and thor 2/3 satellite with newer svns?

    em TvService.TvCard.Scan(IChannel channel, ScanParameters settings)
    this does not look like a low signal issue.

    could you please use the BDA drivers for the Skystar2?
