DVB-S Box by Opera

[Captain-DJ]

Hello!
(Sorry for my bad English, i hope Google can help me :-)
I have the USB DVB-S Box Opera. The Manufacturer is: Siemssen Elektronics - Hamburg - Germany There is no BDA Support and only the original Software will work. So i used the External Recording Plugin. I have the EPG configured by XMLTV and its working.
Now i have a problem: The original software "DVB-S1" will only start in the TV mode, i can not start it in the Record mode...thats not ok for automatical recordings. This Programm has EPG, but this ist very bad, and the PC and this Programm must be startet. In the main Directory is an "Scheduler.evt" All Records stored here. This file are "dekoded", no normal text is here. I load this file up, so anyone can see it.

Know anyone who get the Start Time an the Record Time from GB-PVR to this file ???

Information in this File:
Schedul Name: test1
Start Time: 2006-7-25-23:45
Rec.Lenght: 1:30
Programm: KABEL1
Filename: testfile

Honestly, you'd be better off just paying the few bucks for a DVB-S device with BDA drivers. It would save a lot of hassle.

If you want to decode this file, you should start by changing one field at a time, such as the start time, and then make a copy of the Scheduler.evt and note down what you changed. You should then be able to determine the location and length of each field - You may also need to put in both low and high values for each field, i.e. start times of 00:00 and 23:59. The next step would be to decode how the data is stored.

Thanks. I will try that.
