[QUOTE="bendtsen, post: 727097, member: 104886"] Hello all, I am following this thread with interest as I think the exact same problem applies to analog tuners. I guess I am soon the only person in Sweden still using an analog tuner, but there are providers with analog content even though the analog broadcasting network was shut down and replaced with digital equivalent a few years ago in Sweden. My problem is that sometimes my analog channels work, after rebooting or hibernating they don't work. I can't really see a pattern so I'm guessing the signal might be weak, and MediaPortal runs into trouble. I have the exact symptoms as described in this thread with DVB-S signals, i.e. tuner is found, set to a specific frequency, but it fails to lock onto the channel. I suspect MediaPortal (through the card's driver?) thinks the signal is to weak to attempt to start reading video and audio. I would be very happy to receive a patch for TV Server and analog tuners. I noticed that the trace output from this patched DLL was printed in the log only for my TechnoTrend DVB-C card which has always worked perfectly with MP. But for the analog card, a line similar to "dvb: LockedInOnSignal locked: False, present: True, quality: 98, strength: -3500" wasn't printed. Maybe its not part of the patch and is in the regular and released MP code but only printed for DVB? I would be happy to create the patch myself if someone told me in which source file this is implemented. Thanks and best regards, Mikael [/QUOTE]
