DVB Dream don't supports all 4 input ports of DISEqC v.1.2

the bugs that are most likely related to user configuration (like a specific hardware, codec or driver prob) or impossible to find a logical reason at the moment. The problems in this category might be fixed in future versions as users keep confirming them with additional information.

DVB Dream don't supports all 4 input ports of DISEqC v.1.2

Postby t_sobko » Sat Feb 24, 2007 6:39 pm

My configuration:
PCI_Pinnacle_PCTV_Sat_Pro_450i(4000i)/Driver_ver.3.1.3.0/Videocard:Radeon_9250_128Mb/Windows_XP_Pro_SP2_Russian/DISEqC_v.1.2-4_inputs:Amos,Sirius,Hotbird,Express_AM2(80°)

I'm using DVB Dream v.1.3c. Program works perfect! Great thanks to the author. But I have a little problem. Program works with my tuner only as with BDA-S. DVB Dream supports only 1-st & 2-nd LNB ports of my DISEqC switcher (v.1.2), so I can watch channels only from this 2 sats (Amos & Sirius). When I'm scanning the rest of sats (Hotbird & Express AM2) that are connected to 3-rd & 4-th input LNB ports of my DISEqC switcher, program can't find any channels. All connections are correct. All preferences of LNB for 3-rd & 4-th input LNB ports of my DISEqC switcher are the same as for first pair of LNB ports. Maybe DVB Dream don't works correctly with my tuner or DISEqC switcher?

I have reported the same problem with my Pinnacle Dual Sat Pro PCI
Tested the switch and it switches to LNB 1 and LNB 2 but when you switch to LNB 3 it goes back to LNB1 and switch to LNB 4 it goes to LNB 2
Tested with tre difftrent switches (Amitron,Digitaly, AMTTRON).
When I use the original prog PCTV 4.0 that came with the card it switches between all four LNB:s so I think the problem is in DVBDream.
Pinnacle don't answer question about how to handle Diseqc switches.

Pinnacle don't answer question about how to handle Diseqc switches.
So it would be difficult to make DD handle DiseqC switches for this card.

It's the major problem with Pinnacle products, they don't give any information about using them with alternative software :evil: :evil: :evil:

I need SDKs and information related to those pinnacle cards to fix it.
DVB Dream - because I have to dream about having time to code it
