Only 27500 S/R channels in Pinnacle PCTV Sat Pro PCI (450i)

[extremeno]

Hi everybody:

 

I've a minor problem with a Pinnacle PCTV Sat Pro PCI (450i): In DVBViewer:

Initially I can only scan and view channels with 27500 symbol rate. If I want to use other S/R, like 22000 or 30000, I must start Pinnacle native application and tune any channel. After that, DVBViewer can scan an tune all channels.

 

I've using Windows XP Mediacenter Edition and I think it can be a BDA driver problem rather than DVBViewer's one. Anyway, Has anybody the same problem and knows how to solve it?

and I think it can be a BDA driver problem

It is. People reported in the German section of this board that it can be solved (at least for the Pinnacle dual sat dvb-s 4000i) by installing a beta driver 4.1.1.0 intended for Vista. However, it also seems to work under XP (after forcing the OS a bit to accept it ). It is available here:

Thank you for the quick response. I'll try it.

 

Before posting, I've tried to read the German posts too, but my German is even worse than my English. Danke sehr!

The driver solved the problem for my 450i too (same sat tuner). It's also availavle through Pinnacle's support page:
