TV Server always gives "no signal" when scanning (1 Viewer)

[stephenlamppost]

Yes, that's exactly what I get (for the mux frequencies only, of course). After that it says "# scan timed out". In the log file, this is the lines that have "signal locked = Y" (and also "scan timed out"). I was a bit confused for a moment because the terminal output isn't the same as the log output.

Hi again stephenlamppost

I don't actually use ScanChannelsBDA - I had to look at the source code - so I too was a little confused about why I didn't see that entry in your logs! I've just arrived at work, but I'll take another look at the ScanChannelsBDA code this evening...

I thought I'd give this thread a last-gasp bump. It's a bit disheartening that ScanChannelsBDA can't scan either.

I suppose there's a chance that this is some peculiarity of the Twinhan drivers that is fixed in the latest version (1.2.3.8). So if anyone has ideas of how to debug the hard-lock that I get when I install those drivers, I'd appreciate that. Nothing shows up in the system event log... it's a rock-hard crash and happens during Windows start-up.

Alternatively, perhaps I could skip scanning and import a ready-made channel list somehow? That's unlikely to be a complete solution though, since the one time I did manage to get a partial scan working (with my 1.0.2 install), I couldn't preview the channels anyway. So there seems to be some deeper tuning problem going on.
