ter9999 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I just brought a TT C-1501 DVB-C card to watch pay TV using CI in DVBViewer. But the CI is slow in first init, it takes 14 seconds!! I have another DVB-S2 card in DVBViewer, often surf through channels between the DVB-S2 card and the TT C-1501, if just come to a channel of TT card from the DVB-S2 card, it takes another 14 seconds. If I surf channels just of the TT card, it takes only 2 seconds. Maybe the CI (or even the TT card) power is off when I surf off the TT card? Is there a way to allow the CI init time shorter? Thanks much! Quote Link to comment
ter9999 Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 No reply... Maybe the TT S3200 has the same issue for the slow CI first init... Anyone has idea to improve this? Quote Link to comment
CiNcH Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) No, TT driver is pretty bad when it comes to the CI, it is even worse with the USB boxes. Also the init time without CI is not too good. Other cards are instantly available within a split second. There is nothing you can do about that. I have banned all TT cards for the time being. This is one of the reasons. Edited April 13, 2010 by CiNcH Quote Link to comment
ter9999 Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 Bad news.. I should consult with you before buying... Based on your experience, 1. Could you recommend a good DVB-C card with good CI init time and overall init time? 2. Could you recommend a good DVB-S2 card with low threshold and good multiswitch support and good overall performance? Thanks!! Quote Link to comment
CiNcH Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 1. Could you recommend a good DVB-C card with good CI init time and overall init time? Init times and CI support is pretty good with the KNC/Mystique cards. Quote Link to comment
ish-west Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I just brought a TT C-1501 DVB-C card to watch pay TV using CI in DVBViewer. But the CI is slow in first init, it takes 14 seconds!! … Got the same TT C-1501, use it with Irdeto CI. Got quite a number of problems with it: slow CI init some channels just don't show stops working at all if left on for ~24 hrs, only power cycling helps And I do believe there's smth wrong with the hardware itself cause it had the same problems with VLC and MythTV on Linux :-( Quote Link to comment
