HBO HD not working

[dvb_solo]

I have problem with one HD channel (HBO HD Polish/cyfra+) not working at all in W7. I works without problems in DDVBViewer and DVBSBridge PRO in Vista with TV Pack. In W7 I got distorted video and audio from time to time.
In DVBSBridge it seems to me that every few seconds some frames are lost. I initialized TV setup in VMC deleting prevoiusly database in "Safe Mode", but it didn't help.Log file attached.

Another chanels stopped working. All of them can be watched under dvbviewer, In VMC sytem tries to configure these channels as digital radio. Digital radio message is flashing on the screen,
Tried today with W7 RC 7100 and dvbviewer 4.0, previously it was 4,1,1. Channels that stopped working correcty in dvblink are: discovery, cinemax2, axn, axc sci i axc criminal.

Installed today ver. 1.0.1 published 30.06.09. I attached log file when channels were changed. The order of channels are AXN, Discoovery and HBO HD. The first two channels are recognized by VMC as digital radio. HBO HD is unwatchable.

Digital radio message is flashing on the screen,

I got the same problem with Vista SP1 w/ TV Pack. HBO HD and Discovery HD from CYFRA+ (from 12265.00 V) . Please take a note that these channels are DVB-S HD channels not S2? Maybe flashing caused because of this

[denethor]

Let me ask you another fundemental question:
What causes that the channels which can be viewed in DVBViewer it self cannot be viewed via DVBLink/MCE?

Where should I start to dig?

Vista SP1 w/TV Pack
DVBlink 1.0.1
DVBViewer 4.1.1.1

The very first things that I would do is to dump the stream from problematic channels to a file as described here:
http://1geek1tool.com/2009/06/dvbdream/ ... -file-sink

You can then upload the resulting file to our ftp so that we can have a look.

I couldn' t connect ftp.dvblogic.com anonymously so I uploaded to Rapidshare

The PMT packets of this stream have very strange structure - they do not contain the elementary streams in their "usual" form.
I do not know yet what I can do with these channels. Will search on the internet and let you know.

Hi Oberon,

I just uploaded ts files for HBO HD and Discovery channel.

Oberon let me give you more detail information about my setup. Since there is no way to change Audio Stream of channels from media center I' ve implemented some workaround.I do not know its relevant but...:

Please see the attached file. What I am doing is:

1. Remove the HBO HD (ENG) via Channel editor
2. Rename the HBO HD (POL) to HBO HD (I really hate DVBViewer naming for dual audio channels )
3. Replace AUDIO PID of HBO HD (POL) with HBO HD (ENG) which is 412 in this case.



By the way this not spesific for HD channles I'm also experiencing same problems with other CYFRA+ or Polsat SD Channels.

PS: Why there is 2 HBO HD (POL) in same transponder in single scan; weird

[denethor]

I rescanned the TP added untouched version of HBO HD (POL) to the listings; same problem.

[denethor]

Any news about the problem

[Oberon]

No, sorry. Did not have time to look into that yet.

I don' t know if you changed anything related to the Transport Stream handling in 1.1 but issue still exist in latest 1.1 release.
