2 little bugs

Recommended Posts

I write this to show 2 little bugs I found in the last version of DVBV:

 

1) the first is that when i go to fullscreen in rare case (but it is anoying) the application bar don't hide (I have set the application bar to show always). I have winXPsp1.

 

2) the second bug is that DVBViewer when closed don't free (or turn off) the DiSeqC signal. This is not good because in this way the SS2 is not completely turn off and if there is another receiver on the same cable don't work correctly because SS2 drive the DiSeqC. To help understand this status I use two utilities from Christian: b2status.exe that give the SS2 status and FreeLNB.exe that turn off the SS2. Here is the logs (look for Diseqc lines):

 

When the pc is turned on without SS2 is in use:

D:\sw035>b2status -a eth1

..well, some say it will switch off on exit, some say it doesn't :D

 

To be on the safe side, I always click on lnboff (shortcut on desktop) before using my stb :huh:

For the 1st point I have the same, but everytime (maybe because I prefer Overlay)...

 

I belive is someway related to the way the Render is called (or some paremeters is passed to it)... and IMHO they are two very different visualization modes, because they also have different zoom and centering settings, separately modificable via NVidia driver option's (I have no monitor attached to PC, only TV-out...)

 

The only way I found to make the appbar disappear is to click two time on "full screen" on the remote: using mouse and menus for the same operation is useless, and "provocate" the reappearing of the appbar when I change channel next...

 

 

I hope this info are of same utility...

 

Cheers
