Hi,

For TBS5980 USB DVB-S2 CI Box, the USB devices initiation method must be used.
On OnInit() function you may find the following method that is used to get m_pKsCtrl variable .

//Get the interface
//USB Devive init ALL use it 5980 QBOXS QBOXS2 5922 QBOX3
if((DeviceType==3)||(DeviceType==4)||like 5921 QBOXS2 and son)
{
m_pKsCtrl = NULL;
if(!ll_init && m_pTunerDevice != NULL)
{
hr = m_pTunerDevice->QueryInterface(__uuidof( m_pKsCtrl ),
reinterpret_cast< void** >( &m_pKsCtrl ) );
if (FAILED(hr))
{
ll_init = 1;
MessageBox("m_pTunerDevice QueryInterface Failed","error",MB_OK);
m_pKsCtrl = NULL;
return FALSE;
}
}
}

If by mistake you used the PCI/PCIe devices initiation method, you just can't get DiSEqC work with "QBOX" method.

//PCI or PCI-E initDeviceType = 6921,8921,6920,8920,
if((DeviceType==1)||(DeviceType==2)||(DeviceType==5))
{
m_pKsCtrl = NULL;
m_pTunerPin=NULL;
m_pTunerPin = FindPinOnFilter(m_pTunerDevice, "Input0");
if(!ll_init && m_pTunerPin != NULL)
{
hr = m_pTunerPin->QueryInterface(IID_IKsPropertySet,
reinterpret_cast<void**>(&m_pKsCtrl));
if (FAILED(hr))
{
ll_init = 1;
MessageBox("m_pTunerDevice QueryInterface Failed","error",MB_OK);
m_pKsCtrl = NULL;
return FALSE;
}
}
}

Thanks!

    Perhaps... Only way to confirm would be for me to invest in a different USB DVB-S2 tuner (like the Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-S2), which I might do if the issue persists.

    Brief update... Hauppauge support responded quickly, stating that the "driver for all of our product confirm to the BDA format". Not sure what that means, but to test that, I downloaded a copy of Capture4Me, and indeed, it switches LNBs without any issues with minimal configuration (just set DiSEqC to 1.x A/B/C/D and select the...

    Can anyone tell me the step-by-step procedure for bringing up a second channel in pip mode? I can only do it sometimes, after many tries, and it’s not clear what I am doing that makes it work on those occasions when it does. Cannot find guidance on the site. Thanks, N. Again, if anyone knows how to do this, would be much...

    It's getting weirder..... If I remove all the IP cards in the TVServer setup and then add them back I can scan the M3u and tune the stations but if I rescan it on the same card it just keeps updating the 1 channel. My brain is melting.........
