Issue with Pinnacle 3010iX

[Tag]

Hi All

Hope someone can give me a few pointers.

I have had a Pinnacle 3010iX in my machine for quite sometime, and it worked fine, unfortunatly I had a problem with the motherboard, and replaced the motherboard, all works fine, however, when I tried to watch live TV, it never worked, so I checked the config, all was there and looked okay (this is 1.3.7 and has been since it was released, without any issues)

I went into update EPG or Map Digital Channels, I got an error about cannot find BDA device.

After quite some messing about, I had to delete the device and re-add it.

I manually selected the Pinnacle 3010iX and did everything, got the same error mapping channels. When I ticked the box "Only show installed Devices" it showed me a BlackGold something (sorry cannot remember it was late and I was off the back of a 15 hour shift) even though it was deffinatly set as a Pinnacle 3010iX previosuly, anyway I added the device, it did the scans and picked all the channels fine.
I got everything working, live tv the lot, however, it will not update the EPG at all, I am using the option for update via DVB-t
If anyone has any pointers I would appreciate it, unfortunatly the PC was not attached to the net yesterday evening, so I could not post, now I am at work, but it will be tonight.

On a side note, I have obviously lost all my season recording, not a massive issue, but I have also lost everything that has been previosuly recorded. Now all the recording are there in the recording directory (T:\temp) is there a way to import them back ? .. there are about 150ish in total. All is not lost if it is not possible, I can browse for them via windows, but it would be much nicer if I could see them in GB-PVR again (more for the wife than me !!)

Thanks for any help in advance, and keep up the good work

Some Pinnacle and BlackGold devices use the exact same drivers. This BlackGold selection will be fine if the app thinks they're a match.

Hit the 'update epg' button in the config app, then post your config.exe.log and config.exe-native.log and I'll take a look.

If you have the recordings-dump.xml that has all these shows list, then you can use the 'import recordings' feature to reimport them. If you dont have the xml file, then there was some utility called VidImport on the wiki that can recreate the xml for you to import.

Tried all again, here are the logs.
I did a clean reboot before i did this, the log was much larger.

Okay this is sorted now.

In the end, I deleted the device, installed the BlackGold drivers and re added the device(s).
All works fine now.

The recording XML was there but rmpty, I will take a look at your suggestion on the wiki, but it is not a massive issue, they are all there on the disk, in subfolders so no biggy

Thanks for your response sub

Cheers
