*VHF DVB-T tuning bandwidth issue*

Postby effediqu » Wed Nov 26, 2008 4:45 pm

I have never been able to tune any VHF DVB-T station, in DD. No problems in UHF channels instead. I have created a personal .ini file in transponders folder, in addition to standard 4000.ini whose header is "DVB-T Europe", and collect VHF+UHF frequencies together. I have done so because, in Italy, VHF channels are 7 MHz wide, and UHF 8 MHz wide. So it is necessary to have 2 different *.ini files, one with a 7 Mhz band setup, the other with 8 MHz band setup. Anyway, I have never been able to tune any VHf channel using standard 4000.ini file either. What am I doing wrong?

Unfortunately there is nothing you can do about it right now. Here in Germany we got the same problem, and I also have to use 2 different .ini files. Rel promised to fix this issue, but this was a long time ago...

you should be able to tune with 2 INI files, as written in the first post.
but if you still can't tune, then there might be some other/diferent parameters beside bandwidth for VHF.

Update for DVB-T channels in Berlin, Germany:

A few days ago the channel assignment got changed here in Berlin, and for the better this time. All channels now have a bandwidth of 8 MHz, there is no need anymore to use two different ini files to tune to all available channels.

Just use a consolidated version of 4000.ini:

Code: Select all

[SATTYPE]
1=4000
2=DVB-T Europe

[DVB]
0=63
1=50000,H,6900000

With this ini file (bandwidth 8 MHz) DVBDream tunes to all available channels here in Berlin :D
