Ricjy4001 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) Hi, am located in Darwin, Australia and having trouble with one particular channel not being found during DVB-T scan. I created a custom .ini (see below) using TransEdit, all other channels come in fine except for 'Seven'. Have been using NextPVR & TV Mosaic and picks the channel up fine so must be something I have wrong. I sourced the below frequencies for Darwin here: https://myswitch.digitalready.gov.au Have also tried different combinations of settings, scan for additional frequencies etc. [SATTYPE] 1=5000 2=DVB-T Darwin [DVB] 0=5 1=536625,7,4,|SBS 2=543625,7,4,|ABC 3=550625,7,4,|Nine 4=557625,7,4,|Seven 5=564625,7,4,|DDT Cheers, any help would be much appreciated.

Griga Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Usually there is more than one channel located on a frequency / transponder. Is just one channel missing on 557.625 MHz or is the whole transponder dead? What does the TransEdit Analyzer show? Quote Link to comment
Ricjy4001 Posted July 8, 2020 Author Share Posted July 8, 2020 Appologies I should have been more clear, the transponder appears dead. I just tried doing a scan in TransEdit but bringing up nothing for that frequency, all the others work. I even located another transmitter slightly further away and tried the frequency for that one but same deal, it too brang up the other channels fine. What's odd is the channels for that frequency are coming up fine in two other backends. Am using DVB Media Server with Kodi and is rock solid especially when it comes to startup/shutdown, fast channel changes etc so not wanting to return to others! Quote Link to comment

The troublesome frequency is 557.625 Mhz To your other question, this was the other transmitter I tried, and the other two backends are NextPVR & TV Mosaic, they both pick up all the channels for this frequency fine, which makes it more confusing! Cheers and thanks Quote Link to comment

Are you sure that 557.625 is a DVB-T2 transponder? It may not work because it is still DVB-T, depending on your DVB hardware. Which device are you using? Are the other backends using the same device? (last attempt). Quote Link to comment
Ricjy4001 Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) Success! Went into TV Mosaic's transponder list for Australia that was working and with slight modification was able to use that to scan, and bingo, all 8 channels under 'Seven' came up. Turns out this was the frequency 529.500 to use, which is not on the transponder list. Cheers Edited July 9, 2020 by Ricjy4001 typo Quote Link to comment
