I know many people have asked for USALS support but i have yet to see a definitive answer to date, Will MP ever support USALS for motor control of satellite?

    If you've got any problem or doubt about USALs implementation, I can put you in contac with some friend coders. We added USALs support many time ago to a spanish DVB program.

    Tip: whenever you want to move the antena, tune a Horizontal TP first... This way you are feeding LNB (and also motor) with 18 V, and dish will move faster... :)

    bye!

    By the looks of things and trying to find info on motors here I take it that controlling a motor is not very important.

    I have never gotten it to work at all with MP and my Skywalker 1 tuner.

    It would be nice to see it work.

    This feature is about an hours work away.

    I will be finishing it tommorow morning.

    A sneak peak at the testing I have been doing.

    This is a test version.

    There is nothing added to this other than USALS support.

    I would like someone to test this as I am having difficulty with my dish at the minute.

    To use:

    Install over 1.2.2 final.

    Click Enable Motor.
    Click Enable Usals.
    Enter your location Lat & Long. If you are unsure what it is then google it.
    Select a Satellite and search the channels.
    Do so for all the satellites you can see.

    Then let me know if it worked.

    Thanks.

    You'll have my feedback in about 1 hour... :p Just let me backup my config and install your patch. I've got a working USALs config running with DVBViewer in same PC, so test results will be quite confident.

    EDIT: Sorry to say patched TV Server is not detecting any of my tv cards... :( They appear as "unknown"...

    Stop TVService,
    Close SetupTV,
    Delete mptvdb database
    Run SetupTv

    This will fix your problem. Also have you installed 1.2.2 Final?

    Good. I am pleased that that is now working for you. :) If you have ever looked at MP debug log files, you may have noticed that apparent errors are not rare, but these are "errors" that do not affect the functioning of the product. (It is not desirable to have these errors in the log file, as it misleads users, testers, and...

    The problem with MP 1.32 was that the TV Server component was still 32-bit, even when you installed the 64-bit version of the MP client. MP 1.33 will have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of both the MP client and TV Server. My understanding is that it will not be possible to perform an upgrade install from a 64-bit client + 32-bit TV...

    Sums up the problem I am having. Sorry if I wasn't clear. No, #selectedthumb is not preserved on going to the next window. That's exactly what I am trying to solve.
