Sundtek Has ATSC Enigma 2 Solution

Thanks, I think I'll just build up a CSV text file with that.

Do the call sign IDs have a fixed connection with the Channel names? Eg. can I use the channel numbers to match the channel name instead of the call sign letters?
 
"can I use the channel numbers to match the channel name instead of the call sign letters?"

If I remember correctly, on my first scan when I received the tuner, about 80% of the newly scanned channels displayed call signs with channel numbers to the right of the call sign. 10% displayed channel names with channels numbers to the right of the channel name. 10% just displayed the frequency with sid numbers.

Maybe some one else can chime in with their percentages.

We add the channel numbers to the call sign inside the driver that's why you see those (el bandido recommended doing that), those which only show up SID Numbers could not completely resolve the channel names.
 
I have no problems with things as they are.... Should I need to rearrange things to my liking, I can always use DreamBoxEdit.

Some may prefer channel numbers first, others call signs first, it's their preference; they can always use DreamBoxEdit.

Either way, thanks for your work.
 
Different televisions may display different information. what happened is I looked at the tv and told him what it displayed. That is what we ended up with.

The sid being displayed on some channels has been corrected. If you are using 3-23 drivers or later, then you should get channel names and numbers when scanning. Try a fresh scan if you still have sid numbers being displayed for some channels.
You can still get the sid instead of the channel name/number if this information cannot be found. Weak signals may display the sid.
 
This is twice that I have seen this, so it is no accident, nor my imagination.
The muxes are updated automatically. LAFF tv was added to the WSB mux as channel 2.3.This channel was automatically added to my receiver, and named accordingly. First it was named WSB-SD2 (2.3), Then a few seconds later, the name was changed to LAFF (2.3). All of this happened without me scanning anything or making any adjustment. This channel was added automatically when I started watching WSB.

I had to rescan on my television set to get this new channel. Too bad the tv cannot auto update.:bigclap:
 
I think I have some idea about the mixed 2 transponders which you are able to receive.
If the transport ID is not set (basically if it is set to 0) so we can just try to assign the frequency as ID in the future.
Picking an Id by our self is not a perfect solution though since it might collide with another existing transponder (theoretically), we just need to see how this works out practically once it's fully implemented.
Our main focus is on our own application for our tuners (including your ATSC tuners) so things will be a little bit delayed.
 
Hi Sundtek

I have question regarding support for Sundtek usb tuner on VDR Avantgarde will the plugin will be available in the coming future

Thanks
 
VDR Avantgarde?

What's that?

By the way I'm not always checking the forums as you might have noticed, just send a pm here and I should get an email notification I think.
 
Hi,

did you test it already? It might be better to contact us via Skype "sundtek"

We support VDR with all our European devices ATSC is not tested with it yet.
 
For Sundtek...

I was watching GetTV, a strong signal station, when the commercials started, it would pixelate (see pix). I zapped down to the next channel, EscapeTv and the pixelization disappeared for a while and then it would start again. As soon as the commercials ended and the actual program returned, the pixelization disappeared.

As you can see, the commercial for 39.95 in GetTv is perfectly clear when zapped to Escape Tv.

This format continued for the next two hours without any deviance.

They are on the same mux, if you can reproduce this try to record it.
If this is regularly there might be something wrong with the decoder.

mb1, as mentioned if you have some issue with the integration just contact us via skype (sundtek) you might also try http://chat.sundtek.de (we're not always monitoring the chat though so an answer via chat might take a little bit).
 
Thank you

I am on the road but will be back home on the weekend
