Dear All,
I have a skystar hd and I am using vdr 1.7.0 with the h264 patch and xine for output device as described here:
http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/OpenSUSE_VDR_DVB-S2_-_xine
The only channel I am able to watch is HD Suisse. I can not watch any other dvb-s2 or h264 channel. When I zap to it I get: channel not available.
These are some example channels from chanels.conf that do NOT work:
SKY Sport HD 1;SkyItalia:11996:vC23M5S1Z35:S13.0E:27500:10164+164:0;416=ita,417= eng:0:919,93B:11020:64511:6400:0 Next HD;SkyItalia:11996:vC23M5S1Z35:S13.0E:27500:10160+160:0;400=ita,401=eng:0:9 19,93B:11030:64511:6400:0 SKY Cinema HD;SkyItalia:11996:vC23M5S1Z35:S13.0E:27500:10161+161:0;404=ita,405=e ng:0:919,93B:11031:64511:6400:0 NationalGeo HD;SkyItalia:11996:vC23M5S1Z35:S13.0E:27500:10163+163:0;412=ita,413= eng:0:919,93B:11032:64511:6400:0 SKY Sport HD 2;SkyItalia:11996:vC23M5S1Z35:S13.0E:27500:10165+165:0;420=eng,421= ita:0:919,93B:11033:64511:6400:0

I dont think that this is the case because with encrypted DVB-S channels I get a blank screen but NOT the message "channel not available". I get this message ONLY on DVB-S2 channels. I can perfectly watch HD Suisse which is DVB-S.
I think I am missing a patch. I think there must be a patch that "tells" vdr that these channels are DVB-S2 and instructs the card accordingly to switch to dvb-s2 "mode".
Basically I use vdr-1.7.0 with this patch: http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/attachments/20080413/1054bcfb/attachmen... and vdr-xine as described here: http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/OpenSUSE_VDR_DVB-S2_-_xine
Am I missing a patch or something else?

no need the additional patches for vdr 170 except vdr-1.7.0-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup.diff.bz2 , but you already have installed it.
could you check VDR's behaviour on open dvb-s2 channels , please

with vdr 1.7 and the patch it´s possible to say that there is something if you remove the encrypted flag, and vpid, ppid and dpid they will reappear when you switch to that channel - its there, maybe they are not broadcasting at that moment

I suppose Vangelis Nonas didn't remove any encrypted flags and pids. For you information - what's new in VDR 1.6.0
======================================== The changes since version 1.5.13: - Removed switching to the next higher or lower channel if the current channel is not available, in order to allow staying on an encrypted channel that takes a while for the CAM to start decrypting. =========================================
may be in 1.7.0 it was broken for dvb-s2 encrypted channels....
Igor
As far as trying vdr with clear DVB-S2 channels, unfortunately it is not possible in my case since I only have access to Hotbird, which I think has no clear DVB-S2 channels.
As fas as changing encrypted flag, vpid, ppid and dpid, can you please give me an example, what I have to change in the following line:
Next HD;SkyItalia:11996:vC23M5S1Z35:S13.0E:27500:10160+160:0;400=ita,401=eng:0:919,93B:11030:64511:6400:0
Finally, I have to mention that using multiproto (not multiproto plus) and modified szap, I can tune to Next HD and get a lock (of course I can not watch the channel, I just get the message from modified szap that it has lock). Modified szap does not work at all with multiproto plus.
Moreover, using multiproto (not multiproto plus) and vdr-1.5.14 (with h264 patch) or vdr-1.5.12 (with dvb-s2 + h264 patch) I have exactly the same behaviour with vdr-1.7.0 and multiproto plus : channel not avaialble for all DVB-S2 channels.
Thank you Vangelis

yes, you are right - on Hotbird the open dvb-s2 channels absent http://www.lyngsat.com/hd/hotbird.html

which multipro's version and szap do you use ? where from did you get szap ?
Modified szap does not work at all with multiproto plus.
it's strange. May be the version of multiproto_plus and multiproto is different ?
Moreover, using multiproto (not multiproto plus) and vdr-1.5.14 (with h264 patch) or vdr-1.5.12 (with dvb-s2 + h264 patch) I have exactly the same behaviour with vdr-1.7.0 and multiproto plus : channel not avaialble for all DVB-S2 channels.
what about the logs ? could you see un /var/syslog
Igor
My multiproto version is not the latest, it is changeset 7205 dated a couple of months ago. My modified szap is dated from that date also, but it does not compile with multiproto plus. I cant find the exact links I downloaded multiproto and modified szap but they were mentioned on the linux-dvb mailing list.

My multiproto version is not the latest, it is changeset 7205 dated a couple of months ago. My modified szap is dated from that date also, but it does not compile with multiproto plus. I cant find the exact links I downloaded multiproto and modified szap but they were mentioned on the linux-dvb mailing list.
As fas as changing encrypted flag, vpid, ppid and dpid, can you please give me an example, what I have to change in the following line:

Following is the log from vdr-1.5.14 with h264 patch and multiproto. If you want log from vdr-1.7.0 I'll send. Channel 1854 is HD Suisse and channel 1855 is Sky Sport HD 1.

As far as trying vdr with clear DVB-S2 channels, unfortunately it is not possible in my case since I only have access to Hotbird, which I think has no clear DVB-S2 channels.
yes, you are right - on Hotbird the open dvb-s2 channels absent http://www.lyngsat.com/hd/hotbird.html
As fas as changing encrypted flag, vpid, ppid and dpid, can you please give me an example, what I have to change in the following line:

Finally, I have to mention that using multiproto (not multiproto plus) and modified szap, I can tune to Next HD and get a lock (of course I can not watch the channel, I just get the message from modified szap that it has lock).
which multipro's version and szap do you use ? where from did you get szap ?
Modified szap does not work at all with multiproto plus.
it's strange. May be the version of multiproto_plus and multiproto is different ?
Moreover, using multiproto (not multiproto plus) and vdr-1.5.14 (with h264 patch) or vdr-1.5.12 (with dvb-s2 + h264 patch) I have exactly the same behaviour with vdr-1.7.0 and multiproto plus : channel not avaialble for all DVB-S2 channels.
what about the logs ? could you see un /var/syslog

Hi,
can you try this FTA channel, which broadcasts MPEG2 via DVB-S2 at Hotbird 13.0 E:
Initial;ITI:11449:hC23M5O35S1:S13.0E:27500:519:0:0:0:15100:318:1300:0
BTW: your syslog excerpt didn't show messages like
May 10 18:04:03 video vdr: [6165] cVideoRepacker: switching to MPEG1/2 mode
just
May 10 18:04:03 video vdr: [6165] cVideoRepacker: operating in MPEG1/2 mode
so I assume you didn't specify
-l 3
on VDR's command line, or debug messages are logged into a different file by syslog. Please try to provide those log lines too.
Bye.
When I switch to Initial channel I dont get the channel not available message, however I dont get a picture as well. I believe that this channel is not receivable, at least not at my location. Following is my log when starting vdr with BBC World, then switching to Initial, then back to BBC World (using -l 3):

Hi,
can you try this FTA channel, which broadcasts MPEG2 via DVB-S2 at Hotbird 13.0 E:
Initial;ITI:11449:hC23M5O35S1:S13.0E:27500:519:0:0:0:15100:318:1300:0
BTW: your syslog excerpt didn't show messages like
May 10 18:04:03 video vdr: [6165] cVideoRepacker: switching to MPEG1/2 mode
just
May 10 18:04:03 video vdr: [6165] cVideoRepacker: operating in MPEG1/2 mode
so I assume you didn't specify
-l 3
on VDR's command line, or debug messages are logged into a different file by syslog. Please try to provide those log lines too.
Bye.
Hi,

When I switch to Initial channel I dont get the channel not available message, however I dont get a picture as well. I believe that this channel is not receivable, at least not at my location. Following is my log when starting vdr with BBC World, then switching to Initial, then back to BBC World (using -l 3):
Well, I forgot to mention that the SkyStar HD (TT3200) driver still has an issue regarding tuning this channel. It may take up to several minutes until it successfully tunes to this channel (you'll see several messages like 'frontend 0 timed out while tuning to channel 1860, tp 111449').
BTW: Where do these PMT-SWITCH messages come from?
OT: check your LANG and LC_... environment variables. Set LANG to one entry among the list which
locale -a
outputs and check the values of the other variables by typing
locale
In case an LC_... variable is not set explicitly, the locale command will print it's default value derived from other variables like LANG, so there is no need to set them unless you want some of them to be different from their default values.
Bye.
So, I have checked on my VDR 170 your issue. I can confirm that on encrypted dvb/s dvb/s2 channels I receive the message "Channal not available"
But you can fix it easy :)
Go to Menu - Setup - Update channels - NO after that go to the channels edit (red button) - change CA field from encrypted to Free to Air
Igor
As far as Igor's confirmation on "channel not available" I get this message only on DVB-S2 encrypted channels. I dont get it on encrypted DVB-S channels.
As far as Reinhard's suggestion for the Initial channel (to tune for a few minutes before the card actually tunes), I could not get a sustained lock. It locked after about 10 minutes, it gave me TS stream errors for a few seconds and then it lost lock. I have the feeling that the channel is not available at my location/dish installation.
Thank you Vangelis
