I have removed all software that may use the tuner i.e. DVBViewer I then removed all reference to the tuner from the sage.properties file, I stopped and disabled the Sage service and rebooted, the card then gets no signal Lock in DVBe4sage whcih can be seen in the attached log, I then added the tuner in sage and scanned the Tuner in Sage, then I removed the source from Sage and went back to DVBe4sage and this time it gets the signal lock but I have the same problem as yesterday it will not record, is this information of any help to diagnose the issue?

Kind Regards |

I installed this last night but I only have 2 channels set up in Sage at the moment. I had problems initially but that was because I couldn't spell dvbe4sage.ini . That took a long time to notice My ini file is below - only a slight difference at the start, but it is set up for unencrypted channels as I don't have Sky. Code:

Try tuning these channels and see if it works. I'll add BBC2 (102) and see if mine works with that channel. |

Are you adding the channels too SageTV or am I missing something in DVBE4SAGE?

To test now though, and save that work, I went into tuner setup in Sage, selected a DVB Enhancer virtual tuner, channel setup, and added a channel. The details I said were Station Name: BBC2 Station ID: BBC2 Logical number: 102 Physical number: 102 After adding it, I tuned to BBC2 in the guide (showing as 'no data' due to no EPG) and set it to record. I copied the recording to a different PC to play it as I don't have a decoder set up on that box, and it played ok. |

I initially tried it on Vista last night and had all sorts of graph errors in the logs so I rebuilt using 2003 server and that went smooth as pie. |

I am using WHS which I believe is basically 2003 Server under the hood, it should be a very simple process, the tuners worked fine in SageTV , did you just download DVBE4SAGE from the googlecode page, is it V.236?

I copied it from a friend who I was visiting, but have just checked and its the same version. I downloaded and checked all the files and they're identical.
I need another PC and another lnb as mine are all in use right now so I can't do any more checking for a few hours. It looks like you're using dvbenhancer on its own to test the recording. It should create a ts file in the dvbenhancer folder when you test it like that. Could there be any permissions issues maybe thats stopping it? Other than that, do you have a different PC you could test it with, just to see if its a problem with the PC itself. I messed about for a good few hours on Vista before biting the bullet and reinstalling. |

cpass,
Did you try installing DX9 end user runtime? This might help...

This didn't seem to help, one thing that is puzzling me is when I remove all reference of my tuners from SageTV then run DVBE4SAGE it gets no signal lock, then when I scan the tuner in SageTV and remove the tuner, then go back to DVBE4SAGE it gets a signal lock, how is it interacting with SageTV, are me SageTV settings causing the problem?

Just for your info, I had my system working great.
This evening I've added a Nova-t-500, PowerDVD, PowerCinema and VLC. Somewhere along the lines its stopped working. I've uninstalled everything, including the drivers and its still the same. The last thing I'll try is removing the nova-t-500. If that doesn't work I'll be reinstalling the OS again. You may have to do a similar thing |
