No channels found with Terratec Cinergy 2400i DT

I guess its not the driver then.

I'm not an expert on Graphedit. I made a copies of the [TerraTec Cinergy 1200 DVB-T] section in BDA.INI and then modified the FILTER_TUNER and FILTER_CAPTURE values from the entries in Graphedit Graph / Insert Filter menu option under 'BDA Receiver Component' and 'BDA Rendering Filters'. It was just sort of trial and error. I never actually created a working graph in graphedit - I didn't know what I was doing!

Please have a look at the attachment if it looks like yours.

I've just checked Device Manager and I have three entries under 'Sound, video and game controllers' :

Cinergy 2400i DT Bridge
Cinergy 2400i DT Capture
Cinergy 2400i DT Tuner

There are no extra configuration options under any of them.

In GBPVR config I have both tuners configured as :

Recording Source : BDA Recording Plugin

Device Type : TerraTec Cinergy 2400i DT #1 DVB-T (or TerraTec Cinergy 2400i DT #2 DVB-T)
Device Number : 1 (Note this is 1 for both devices, and works ok)
Country : All regions
Region / Transmitter : All Channels

I don't think there was anything else I had to do.

This is the same as I have done.

This is really strange, because if it was anything different here in Sweden I guess no other software would find any channels. I have tried a lot of PVR software now and about half of them can't find any channels with the Terratec card. (But GBPVR could find them with my old Twinhan cards)

The contents of the 'Insert filters' list looks the same, but I've not tried to create a graph.

The only other thing to suggest is try changing your country and transmitter settings.

Sub:I'm quite happy to upload some log files after do a scan if that would help.

It just sound like the Terratec BDA drivers are a bit screwy to me. I treat all BDA card the same, but this one has problems.

I tried with the "old" Twinhan cards again next to the Terratec but now those didn't work either. Not until I removed the Terratec card from the Device Manager and from GBPVR's Capture Source (I guess it was the removal from the Device manager that did the trick). It seams like the Terratec's driver is blocking everything from recieving channels.

Now that the twinhan is working, what happens if you reinstall the 2400DT along side it ? Do channel scans for both cards fail ?

[Lotsipxes]

It wasn't the Terratec card that was the problem. It must have been some problem when I upgraded to .Net 2.0 and GBPVR v0.97.7, because the Twinhan cards didn't work good either. After much fiddeling I'm now using .Net 1.1 and v.0.96.12 and everything works with all cards.

When I find some time I will try to find out what the problem is.

Thanks for letting me know - I've been considering upgrading to v97.07, so I will bear that in mind.
