Standby => Turn on => No more watching scrambled chann (1 Viewer)

[ziphnor]

Area: Media Portal TV
MP Version: 0.2 + the 2 patches ( 0.2.0.2 )
Skin: default
Windows Version: WinXP SP2
CPU Type: A64 3000+
Memory: 768MB
Motherboard Chipset: Asus A8N-E
Video Card: Ati X550
Video Card Driver: -
Video Card Resolution: 720x576i
Video Codec Type & Version: MPV
Audio Codec Type & Version: MPA
TV Card: Twinhan Cab CI(2031)
TV Card Type: DVB-C
TV Card Driver: 1.2.3.8

Problem:
Normally i can watch the scrambled channels i have paid for without problems. If i ask mediaportal to go into standby, and then resume later on however, i cannot see those channels any more. In that case i need to restart MediaPortal which is very annoying.

My logfile: http://mp.pastebin.com/756448

All log info ( zip file generated my MP Test Tool):
http://quick.dropfiles.net/download.php?file=3947cfcf2c3dd35c9555b31fee2f7c41

What the log shows:
1. i enter My TV and tune a scrambled channel. OK.
2. i leave my tv and ask mp to 'sleep'
3. i resume the HTPC
4. I go to My tv and try to tune the same channel, no go.
5. I tune a free channel, OK.
6. I try to tune the scrambled channel again, no go.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem, is it a bug (and if so is it a MP bug or a driver/hw bug?)

Hi ziphnor

Have a look at this post and see if any pattern coming up.

Just see if anything basic overlooked, because it got me going over the lan bit(forgotten about).

Good Hunting

That problem sounds different, MediaPortal doesnt crash/lock up on me, its just the DVB-C tuner that stops working.

 

[ziphnor]

Btw, i just want to add that the tuner has no problems if i watch TV in MyTheatre, exit MyTheate,, standby, resume, watch TV in MyTheatre, exit MyTheatre, standby, resume, .... .

Im thinking maybe the CAM needs to be reset and that both MyTheatre and MP does this at startup, but not when resuming.

 

[ziphnor]

I updated to 0.2.0.3 and its still happening. Should this be reported as a bug?

Btw, i know it says in my Sig that i have two tuners with a card splitter but i have also tried with only one card and the smartcard directly in the CAM, same thing happens.

Your problem seems very similar to mine (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/viewtopic.php?t=16740).

We both have Twinhan-cards it seems (I have a DVB-T, 3040)... From my experiments I also guess thaht the CAM needs to be totally resetted when resuming from suspend/hibernate.

Now that does seem like the same problem, i think im going to migrate to your thread.

There seem's to be a common thread that devices are not restarting properly, whether it's a cam, remote or tv card after coming out of standby.
What i would love to know is anyone running xp pro with all MS updates and MP 0.2.0.3 and successfully using standby/hibernate and also powerscheduler.
Sorry love to say it's a MS update thats screwed up, so interested in anyone using xp pro without updates using MP 0.2.0.3 working ok as well.

thanks
