Mikhail Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Hello! I'm using a clone of Turbosight TBS 8920 PCI DVB-S2 card. It works just fine with SD and HD TV and seems to be a good choice. The only problem is DVBViewer can't control DiseqC 1.0 switch. DiseqC works with DVBDream, but I like DVBBiewer:) Could you add support of DiseqC for this card? Thanks in advance, Mikhail Quote
Griga Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Has already been added. Your DVBViewer version? Quote
Mikhail Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 I'm using latest DVBViewer beta and latest TransEdit beta. I'v tried every option in DiseqC section of the programs with no luck. Despite of settings DiseqC switch is always in PosA/OptA position. Feels like commands can't reach the switch. Quote
Griga Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 A German user reported that DiSEqC works with a TBS 8910 (after solving a configuration problem): http://www.DVBViewer.info/forum/index.php?...st&p=230596 Maybe TransEdit didn't detect your card as TurboSight device. So let me have a closer look at it... please attach your TransEdit.ini here (see Info -> Configuration Folder in TransEdit). Quote
Mikhail Posted February 7, 2009 Author Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) I'm using not exactly TBS 8920 but its OEM clone called Omicom SS4. This could be the problem. TransEdit.ini Edited February 7, 2009 by Mikhail Quote
Griga Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Most likely. TransEdit detects TBS devices by name. Close TransEdit, open TransEdit.ini with a text editor. Go to the [Hardware] section, change Vendor.0=0 to Vendor.0=13, try again... does it work now? Quote
Mikhail Posted February 8, 2009 Author Posted February 8, 2009 Thank you, Griga! TransEdit works OK now, but DVBViewer doesn't. I've opened hardware.xml but haven't found anything like vendor there. Have uploaded file hardware.xml Quote
Griga Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 I've opened hardware.xml but haven't found anything like vendor there. DVBViewer Pro doesn't provide this tweak, but I'll inform the Pro devs about the matter. The next (beta-)release will most likely detect your Omicom card as TBS compatible. Quote
Lars_MQ Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Yes it will. I have followed this thread with interesst. Quote
Mikhail Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 Thank you very much for the great software and support! Quote
