Pls help - no picture just blank screen

Postby mcmurdock » Mon Jan 25, 2010 12:56 am

Please help me I have some troubles with DvbDream 1.4i. I have SkyStar HD2 PCI card. After installation this card to WIN 7 32bit there is no problem. In DVBviewer works everything fine.
When I start Dvbdream works at beginning everything fine as well, the installation ok, the scan oki, I found about 500 programs. I close the scan tool and I wont to watch the channels.

But when I click to some channel, I can see only EPG, the strange and quality of the signal and the name. There is no screen but blank black picture and no sound at all.

I am talking about Free to Air. For payed channels I want to use vpl** 2.4.2.

Thx for any help.

Hi mcmurdock,

Are you sure you haven't turned-on 'Renderless-mode' ?
(Menu->Channels->Renderless Mode (CTRL+K) )
This results in displaying no video in DD.
Also, check if you have the required (audio/video) codecs installed and configured. (ie. no red backgrounds in the codec pull-down-menu's, this indicates codecs are missing or not suitable for that particular kind of stream)
(Menu->Options->Video (CTRL+G) )

Hope this helps
