Not sure why Genpix is being so condescending. I saw the message on happysat.org but by itself it means nothing. Was the site shutdown for legal reasons, or was it a bandwidth/storage/resource utilization issue? And will it be coming back? I figured some of the same people visit both sites and may h...

dvbn.happysat.org

Anybody know what's happened to the dvbn.happysat.org site -- it it down for good? I think dvbdream had it's own section there so hope it's not to inappropriate to inquire about it here....

Public forum -- if you want a private discussion -- take it to e-mail. This whole thread should be moved over to general. I'd suggest its total deletion but then people wouldn't know your history if you start up a new one.

The guy must just be a forum troll that wants attention. Option 3 is his best bet. He's posted enough nonsense in the thread now that I doubt anybody on the board will take him seriously.

Genpix doesn't know me but I do own two of his earlier modules (not the skywalker). The modules do exactly what they are supposed to do. There's not a thing he can do about the content in the streams. It's up to you to determine how to decode/decrypt/render them. Here's a simple analogy. You buy a n...

I find it hard to believe that somebody can be so willfully ignorant about a problem. The genpix card doesn't know what's in the sat stream -- it just provides it as data over the USB port. It's the software running on your computer that does the parsing and decoding. As long as the genpix driver fo...

Hope you're happy since Genpix himself responded to you. :) You should be recording in TS mode (record format =ts in preferences) and using Render-less mode under Channels. This will take minimal CPU resources since the PC is simply recording the H.264 stream rather than trying to decode it. You sho...

You're bashing the Genpix card because you don't seem to have the understanding as to what it does. It provides the sat stream of a transponder to your PC through the USB port. It's the only card except for the dvbtech one being sold which will work with Dish Network's 8psk turbo fec modulation. It ...

There's nothing wrong with the genpix card. Dish may have changed the resolution of the particular streams to something like 1440x1080 from 1280x720 or in some other way have made the streams more CPU intensive to decode since the last time you had checked. Maybe you're no longer getting any hardwar...

There's nothing wrong with the genpix card. Decoding is done on your computer -- not the genpix card. So, it's either your H.264 codec and/or your CPU. It seems to lack the processing power for smooth H.264 (MPEG4) playback. Stop blaming Genpix. You might try a new video card -- the Nvidia Geforce 8...

Rel got what I meant. I doubt many are doing what I am because it's mixing the 4x4 multiswitches generally used with DirecTV here and single Dishpro LNB's used only by Dish Network. And Dish Network seems to like to create rather exotic combo LNB's with built-in switching that point at adjacent sate...

Voltage selection parameter

You offer the manual selection of 22khz for a switch setting -- how about offering a voltage setting for 13/18V so that ini files don't have to manually be altered for H/V? I use Dishpro Single LNB's which are bandstacked so have no polarity selection. This means I can use a multiswitch and connect ...

Ok -- I figured out how to get the HDTV channels to work. The Intervideo codecs HAD to be installed even though I was planning on using the cybervideo or AC3 filter audio codecs. When an AC3 signal from a HDTV station was passed through -- the default directsound device would turn red in the pulldow...

Sorry -- never tried 1.1h. HD channels were mostly scrambled between the time genpix got his module working with DD and just recently.
I will try to test DD with MPEG-2 HD channels today.

were the channels you've tried working ok with DD v1.1h?
