HVR4000 and NZ DVB-S2 Transponders

[djaggar]

I'm trying to tune my HVR4000 into the Optus D1 HD transponders. I have done this sucessfully using MyTheatre, but it seems to be a no go with GBPVR. Both under XP ...

I have changed 1601.ini to

[SATTYPE]
1=1601
2=Optus D1 Test (DONT USE)
[DVB]
0=2
1=12331,H,22500,23,xyz
2=12358,H,22500,23,xyz

and for xyz have tried
38, 166, 46, 174, 54, 182, 62, 190, which I believe is every combination of pilot & roll off with spectral inversion set to auto, and the modulation set to 8PSK.

The config log has the following lines

Which just might be the problem ...

Has anyone else got this working?

Another user had this problem the other day. It relates to the Hauppauge proprietary DVB-S2 tuning interface rejecting the calls to set the Pilot and RollOff. I talked to Hauppauge about it, and they werent really sure why, but suggested a couple of things. I tried those other things but it didnt help. I got busy with other stuff and havnt got back to Hauppauge to investigate further.

Is there anything I can do to help you out, for example, distill the interface the V4L guys are using from the source code?

No, probably not.

I'll get back to it when I get a bit more available time.
