DVBViewer can't scan channels with FireDTV

I've installed a brand new FireDTV-T card in my HTPC with 64-bit swedish Vista with all the latest patches including tv-pack from MS.

 

MCE scan channels with FireDTV and everything looks fine in MCE.

FireDTV-Viewer and DVBViewer can't scan channels at all with FireDTV.

 

I get this errormessage with both the programs.

I've unplugged and reinstalled the FireDTV. I've reinstalled DVBViewer and the FireDTV Viewer but no difference.

 

What is wrong?

DVBViewer needs the BDA Driver not the MCE Driver.

I have tested with both drivers. It makes no difference.

 

Have you seen that errormessage before?

Yes there are two other Vista 64 Bit user with the seam problem. But nobody has a idea what the reason of this problem is.

The only connection is this error message at the channels scan and Vista 64 Bit. And no channels scan problems in other applications (not DVBViewer based).

But there are many Vista 64 Bit user witch have no problem with the channels scan in DVBViewer.

 

What type is you FireDTV DVB-S, DVB-T or DVB-C?

Please do: Start -> programs -> dvviewer program group -> support -> DVBViewer (debugmode).

 

Try to scan until the error occurs and then please post your support.zip. Maybe there is something to see in the logs...

It's a DVB-T.

 

Please do: Start -> programs -> dvviewer program group -> support -> DVBViewer (debugmode).

Ok. I'll try that tonight.

Do you have the "Windows Media Center TV Pack 2008" (Fiji) installed?

I'm running FireDTV-T on Vista x64 without any problem at all.

 

 

Have you tried to upgrade the firmware of the fireDTV-T . I have latest 1.4.0

 

Fire DVT Firmware

 

Also make sure you are running the latest drivers.

 

Integrated Driver Setup 5.0 N BETA

Hopefully in the current BETA 3.9.4.70 the problem is fixed.

 

Change: BDA direct tuning mode: In direct tuning mode an internal network provider is now used instead the MS NP. Hopefully this will help with the $FFFFFFF Error on some x64 Vista systems.
