Hi,
Since recently I have been using Skystar USB HD with my vdr box. However I have some strange issues with 11817V on Astra 23.5E. Femon reports that there is a lock and sound comes but the image is completely garbled. I am starting to suspect that there might be something wrong with the driver, because I have no trouble with the other transpoders. Maybe it is the combination of fec=5/6 and 8psk on the said transponder that is the reason for this. Other transponders with fec=3/4 and 8psk are OK. The same setup with an HVR-4000 works fine.
Kernel: 3.3.4
VDR: 1.7.27
Could someone who owns a Skystar USB HD and has access to Astra 23.5E share his experience? Is this a driver issue a problem with vdr or is my card faulty?
If someone would be kind enough to test this with his/hers hardware, there is a FTA channel on the problematic transponder:
Planeta HD;SatelliteBG:11817:VC56M5O35S1:S23.5E:27500:1001=27:1002=@3:0:0:5410:3:3206:0
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
few months ago on this transponder was nearly 30% of null PID packets broadcasted, but now it seems to be much better (less than 1Mbps). Also multiplexing of this transponder was not equal within time - there was chunks of packets of PlanetHD multiplexed with chunks of other SD channels mixed packets. Maybe the buffers for USB are not big enough to memorize such chunks? But I didn't done measuring for some months, so the situation may be different now.
You can see bitrates of this transponder at http://www.digitalbitrate.com/dtv.php?mux=11817&pid=5410&live=70&... .
The bitrate of this channel is nothing special, with maximum about 11 Mbps, the peak of 20.2Mbps at 22.5. was maybe a joke.
