unable to play dvb-s with ss2

Postby dorijan » 05 Jul 2009 18:46

Hi..
I am unable to play any channel with techinstar skystar2 pci with vlc

this is how it looks:
mrl: dvb-s://frequency=12460000
options: :dvb-srate=27500

error is:

Code: Select all

Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvb-s://frequency=12460000'. Check the log for details.
and this is
message :

Code: Select all

You use the tuner via QT4 GUI? Or you just paste the MRL?

via gui(with wizard), or if I paste, its all the same...it does not work
I even tried with command prompt vlc dvb-s://frequency=12460000 :dvb-srate=27500
but without success
It seems when I use bda drivers for skystar2 in messages there is this line main debug: looking for access module: 1 candidate

but when I use native drivers there are 0 candidates, so I suppose it find some kind card...

Only BDA drivers are supported. And because you get warnings
bda warning: CreateTuneRequest: Cannot find a suitable System Tuning Space: hr=0x80004005
bda warning: SubmitDVBSTuneRequest: Cannot create Tune Request: hr=0x80004005
with both method, I assume VLC code changes are required to make it work.

ok...i have BDA drivers for skystar2 card installed and they are working with other programs like mediaportal, so I assume it is problem with VLC...
Is ther any other card that is working with sattelite reception?
I want also to congrat to vlc team, for milestone release of version 1.0 and now streaming and transcoding with h264 of DVB-T is finaly working :))))

I tried with latest 1.1-pre version but it is not working..
can someone tell me if I am doing it right?
so I have transponder on 10832 Mhz, so I am putting 10832000 and for 22000 symbol rate, I am putting 22000000
is that right?
this should open whole transponder, so I could choose programs that are on that transponder
