Peak Dual DVB-T tuner PCI lockup (1 Viewer)

[mm1352000]

Hi again Chris

@mm1352000,

The first patch worked great for scan and for watching.

I have attached the logs.

Great

Do I need to try the other one as well?

Nope, not unless you have any further problems. The only difference between the two versions is that the second one also has the TeVii tuner detection removed in case that was messing things up. The earlier exception appears to have been a random issue that has resolved itself...

Is the plan that these changes may end up in future builds of MP?

Absolutely - I'd already been working on this issue because of a problem in another thread so this issue is already "on the team's radar" (so to speak). We are really only waiting on the completion of some final compatibility testing before the fix can be committed. The fix will be in 1.2.0 beta if I have anything to do with it, but definitely version 1.2.0.

OK, that's great!

I will try it soon with the 2 cards that I now have and maybe remove my older Hauppauge hybrid card. That is how impressed I am with this card.

I wonder if this will also fix the issue I experienced a while ago with a PEAK USB tuner? I may give it a go later.

Thanks,
Chris

Hi, i recall having tuning issues with PEAK DVB-T DIGITAL/HD Dual Tuner TV PCI CARD (221544AGPK)

I just checked and im using older drivers under windows xp sp3

v7.12.6.1.071206 ( they also have vista versions under this version of driver)

I couldnt get any channels on scan. But i also had this problem on different hardware a few years ago and it seemed that reloading windows ( no using some xp build after swapping tuners). No i get a clean ghost image of windows before adding any tuners and then use that to test drivers etc.

I gota say that once i got this working its been rock solid tuner, fast channel switching etc

Cheers
