hi

can you try v1.3b with the following patch? after installing v1.3b , put the attached file into \dvbdream\devices folder. (overwrite)


and can you please specify your device type? (What is the model and manufacturer name ??)

I have the same problem - it's with the BDA drivers. You can start the app itself with a null driver, but when you try start the BDA-satellite it crashes.

The replacement bda-s file above produces a different error message:

"Cannot initialise DVB Hardware! Error code:1 Hardware will work in offline mode".

The bda.txt file has this:

Little update: this is a Vista BDA driver problem, I've got it closer to working with the original 1.3b install (ie without using rel's extra bda_s fle above) after a few registry hacks. It's not really working properly though, since every few seconds it goes into jerk-o-vision, then back to smooth. Better than not loading at all though.

Anyway, I added the lines below to the registry, then deleted the bda dvb-t entry in the same location:

ProgDVB also needs this change to recognise any hardware at all, although it doesn't have the lag problem. Alt-DVB and DVBviewer work fine with or without it (and without any lag). Other programs don't work at all regardless

Hello,
excuses to the modos, but yesterday in the night, i created a post around the same subject....my english is not very good, especially when i'm tired....
I've exactly the same problem you speak about, with a nova s+ card ( bda drivers..).even when i change bda_s.dev.
got 2 nova cards on my pc, the nova s+ and nova-t. the nova terrestrial works very well, but when i select the nova-s, with satellite configuration, "cannot initialising hardware...will twork offline mode..."
is there aniway to make work this s+-card with dvbdream....?
i don't really understand the latest post speaking about editing registry (because of my english...)
can you say me if it's possible, this way i'll try to make work it....

thanks.
