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?

    Many many years ago, I opened a bug report after I got that same message but I never got a reply. The reason was I had unchecked the Windows Media Player item in Windows 10 Control Panel > Program and Features > Turn Windows features on or off as I didn't need it, without thinking that it was needed by MediaPortal.

    Looks like there's some kind of error regarding translations that I can't pinpoint about Subcentral. You'll find it in the log file I attached to my previous message. I don't understand it because I use MP in english, I search for subtitles in english and not in my native language, so I can't figure out what's translation got to do...

    4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

    The reason I was thinking I needed more RAM is that TV now seems to be HiDef and so the files have grown. I edit the files before storing them, to reduce some size. It is finding that slower, I think. Or it could just be because I'm expecting more? The Baseboard manufacturer says ASUSTech Computer Inc; Baseboard product P7P55D-E...
