[QUOTE="thekiwi, post: 1186282, member: 30129"] Hi Have a headless Win7 server running Mediaportal 1.14.0 which has run flawlessly for so long. Literally over night it has stopped working giving "No Signal" for all channels and both cards. * Cards are 2 x DVB-S Nova-S-Plus PCI * Only plugins are ComSkip, XMLTV and Kodi. None have been changed. Prior to it stopping all I had done is a rescan for some channel changes we have occuring here in NZ, and all of that went well. Next day ... all gone to custard. Ive tried most things I can think of: * Checked dish and all looks OK with LNB and cabling * Reinstalled Mediaportal * Updated drivers for Hapuppage cards to Version 2.126.30325.0 * Rebooted :) One thing I do note when in the TV server config window , under Manual Control, there is a red bar continually cycling between one card and the next? EPG? Is there some easy way to test the integrity of the cards? I guess there is a chance (since we dont watch a lot of live TV) that whilst I have 2 x cards, that maybe weve been operating of 1 card only for a while, and now the 2nd card has failed ...? Ive checked the boxes Windows logs and there is nothing that stands out in terms of errors. Cheers Craig PS. If the cards need replacing, what would people recommend as a replacement for DVB-S PCI?
