Switching transponders GE 2.0.2.0

[Luuk]

I am using DVB GE 2.0.2.0 but the problem I am about to describe manifested itself already in earlier versions of GE. When I switch between Astra 19 and Astra 28.2E, i.e. between a continental station and a UK one, the TV station name comes up on the screen but no picture (correct time remaining is also shown). When I switch in the other direction, there is no problem. My only workabout so far is to switch to the right UK channel; quit DVBViewer and start again. The channel then loads normally. Suggestions on what might be the cause for this and how to solve it would be much appreciated.

PS. Perhaps I should add that on the regular satellite receiver I do not have this problem.

It is obviously a hardware / DiSEqC related problem, so posting without information about your equipment is of no avail. Please attach the support.zip:

Griga,

 

I had read the instructions, but I am not very technical when it comes to satellite equipment and only have very basic info on my satellite system. I do know I have 2 Brainwave 4002 Universal twin LNBs on a single 80cm disk. On the computer end I run XP Pro. The setup.ini file is given below. I did notice something strange last night. When I switch back to an ITV channel rather than a BBC channel from say a German one, it does work after a delay of a few seconds.

Don't post lengthy configuration files. Attach the Support.zip as a file, as advised! Please read more carefully.

 

Try whether changing the "Stop stream while tuning" and "Use standard interface" settings on Options -> Hardware does something.

 

My only workabout so far is to switch to the right UK channel; quit DVBViewer and start again.

View -> Disable Playback -> Enabling it again should do it as well. Does it?
