Terratec H7 dvb-c will not work in nextpvr

[KRA]

PROBLEM SOLVED, PATCH FOR 2.5.5 INCLUDED HERE http://forums.gbpvr.com/attachment.php?a...1348779655 WILL BE INCLUDED IN FUTURE RELEASES.








I added my second tuner to nextpvr now, and I have problems.

it's the Terratec H7 dvb-c/t tuner. And it's confirmed working

When I try to scan using dvb-c I get following error popup:

"Unable to start device: Device failed to start"

If I try to scan dvb-t it works, but not dvb-c. Did a quick search on forum, only found some gbpvr post about bda.ini - so I hope there is a simple fix.

Any hints are very welcome !

This is what log say when I try to scan

[KRA]

looking at the log, it seems autodetect picks the wrong capture device, it try to use dvb-t when it needs dvb-c

[sub]

You'll probably need to run filtercheck.exe, and post the filtercheck.log it creates.

I've tried 3 different drivers, all same result, looking at filtercheck I see the dvb-c tuner connects at "antenna in" pin rather than "input0", don't know if this is correct.

just like to add, when I said it's confirmed working, I've tested it with dvbviewer and it works, so nothing wrong with device.

[KRA]

I found the filters in graphedit if that helps, it also lists "antenna in pin" rather than "input0". I have no idea how this stuff works, just though it might help.

[sub]

The problem will be caused by the Terratec drivers incorrectly using the same 'PIN medium' on both their DVB-T and DVB-C components. They're supposed to use a unique one for each. Applications use this information to determine which parts go together.

Try the attached patch. It hard codes a work around for this device.

[KRA]

Thank you, unfortunatly it did not help, the problem remain the same, as do logs.

[sub]

Can you post the log file?

[sub]

Can you also post the actual filtercheck.log, rather than the text, so I can check if there any trailing spaces on the name etc.
