BxS SkyStar 2 - Device for DVB Dream v1.1
http://bxsbxs.googlepages.com/ddbxsskystar2.htm
Features:
- Support Marcel Majoor driver for SkyStar 2 r2.6 (only tested with r2.6B)
- Support B2C2 driver/soft v4.4.0 & later
- RawDiSEqC commands (if using B2C2 v4.4.0 driver/soft, need the patched "Sky2PCAVSrc.ax" file)
- Full Transport Stream
(Still in Development phase)
Download:
http://bxsbxs.googlepages.com/BxS_SkyStar_2_v1_0_0.zip
or
http://bxsbxs.googlepages.com/BxS_SkyStar_2_v1_0_0.rar
Include all files need for Marcel Majoor (MM drivers for Win 2K/XP) and for B2C2 (patched "Sky2PCAVSrc.ax" file for RawDiSEqC support).
Use MM mode by default.
To use B2C2 mode edit the "BxS_SkyStar_2.ini" and put "Source=440".
To have support for RawDiSEqC in B2C2 mode copy the patched "Sky2PCAVSrc.ax" file to "TechniSat DVB\bin" directory.
Thanks Relocation for this great DVB Viewer and Marcel Majoor for your driver.
I don't take any responsibility about any use of contents and information.
Enjoy

It means only for r2.6x, or it should work also with r2.3?

If if are using the M. Majoor driver, it will only work with SS2 r2.6

hi all,
I've tried BxS's this alternative B2C2 device with Marcel Majoor's alternative driver, seems to work faster than official driver on my PC.
I had some difficulties on 42e low-sr channels though. but maybe it is my configuration/card revision.
try and share your result here please.

If you (have a SkyStar 2 r2.6) want to try BxS skyStar 2 device file using M.Majoor driver but don't want to have work changing between drivers look here:
http://bxsbxs.googlepages.com/Replace_S ... driver.htm
You can find the "Replace_SS2_r26_driver" program that do the work for you.
This is a very simple version based in the Marcel Majoor installdriver program. (Include Source Code)

Here my test results
2 test Pc's are the same here.
With the B2C2 direct file the test give a better result (faster channel switch) than the MM version with BxS.
2400 MHz

Do you mean b2c2_direct.dev file?? Or b2c2.dev? b2c2_direct.dev is just a test version..

Snuffer,
You said that you will test it

, so what I want is if you have access to a sat with lots of transponders with low symbolrates, try to lock them with BxS_SkyStar_2(MM) device and with the B2C2(rel) and tell me the results.
Thanks
