NPVR crashing while channel scanning

[Kampfmelone]

Hello guys,

First, I have to say that I have tried many softwares for my new HTPC, but NextPVR is the very best.

Unfortunately I have a big problem with the channel scanning.

If I press "scan", the satellite is "0192 ASTRA ... (19.2° E)", it starts scanning, some channels are listed, but after a few minutes, NextPVR brings up a message dialog saying "Created dump file c:\temp\crash.mdump", after clicking OK NextPVR.exe crashs.
(surely I'll attach the .mdump file to this post.)

I read the logs and found an error because of dx9 wasn't installed, so I installed it and it worked...one time. NextPVR says "scan complete", but at clicking OK, net framework showed up an error window, saying the application trys to write data to a locked memory area or something like this. (I had to translate it from german...)
After killing the process (the error showed up everytime I pressed OK or abort) fortunately the channel list was saved. In this period of time everything worked!

Because of nonrelevant reasons, I had to clear the channel list, but now it always crashes while scanning. (I noticed, Windows says the NextPVR.exe is crashed, but in the Taskmanager its still listed, and its not killable by taskmanager)


My hardware/software is:

MSI H61M-E33
Intel i3-2100 ("sandy bridge" with embedded graphics chip)
TBS 6981 DVBS / S2 dual tuner card with original driver from the CD
windows 7 ultimate 32bit
NextPVR 3.0.2 with the "NPVR 2.0.3 Patches, Release 1" package from the survival Thread

Thank you,
Daniel

(sorry for my bad english )

NPVR doesn't support DVB-S2 on that card http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...Tuner-Card and from a list of channels here
http://www.satbeams.com/channels?position=19 it looks like freq 11568 is S2. The ini file doesn't look complete for that satellite anyway at least based on that site, you may wish to change it. There looks like a pretty simple change if you did

Code:

File C:\Users\Public\NPVR\Tuning\DVB-S\0192 ASTRA 1F,1G,1H,1KR,1L (19.2E).ini

changes

18=11597,V,22000,0
19=11627,V,22000,0

oh.. I was able to watch the 3 HD-channels which are provided in my country - so i think its not fully incompatible..

I'll try to do the changes in the .ini file.

Thank you!

EDIT: I tryed to change only the two lines you mentioned in your post, but it still crashed. So I looked in the log every time it crashed and removed the frequency where it crashed. I had to remove 4 lines, but then I could complete the scan. Some of the regional channels are missing, but they are not important.

Is it possible to manually add channels? So I could add the missing ones?

Thank you for your help

I'm out of the country at the moment, but I can check your dump file when I get back.
