hi nate,
Very nice & well done. ![]() ![]() Works ok for my VP but noticed that I have a problem with the program exiting on my pc. Causes a windows error. Not a issue but just wondered if this is noticed on other systems. Previous version did the same if you closed the window rather than exit from the prompt. |

Seems to work fine with the VisionPlus and Fusion. Up to your usual superb standards. Kudos
![]() Small problem with cards that require separate tuner, demod, capture filters. You basically need to add DirectShowSystemDevice tunerDevice; DirectShowSystemDevice demodDevice; DirectShowSystemDevice captureDevice; and when enum'ing the device filters in BDACardCollection look for two KSCATEGORY_BDA_RECEIVER_COMPONENT filters that will connect in sequence. If you only find one then you need mark the demodDevice as null. And obviously flow all this through to the graph building code ![]() Also CODE HRESULT AddFilterByDisplayName(IGraphBuilder* piGraphBuilder, IBaseFilter* &pFilter, LPCWSTR pDisplayName, LPCWSTR pName) Is really by DevicePath ? And therefore should cope with multiple instances of cards using the same filter(name)s ~ ???

I remember this used to happen with the 1.5.3.3 drivers but i havn't tried them. bear: If you could load it up in visual studio and debug it to find out what's causing the exception that would be good. -------------------- |

QUOTE (ZeB @ Nov 15 2004, 05:08 AM) My input frequency is 474000 and my output frequenzy is 530000 The frequency that get's output is what is read from the transport stream. I did this because here in Aus some broadcasters use a +125 offset. So for example ch9 for me is on 191625 instead of 191500.![]() If I want to do a full channel scan then when I tune into 191500 my signal strength is still good enough that i can read the stream, so by using the frequency specified in the transport stream I end up with the correct frequency in channels.ini. I don't know why your transport stream frequency is wrong. Try turning on verbose output and see if you can see anything that might indicate what is happening. QUOTE Maybe this has something to do with this: That looks to be a different issue, but you never know.

[/quote] Well if you enum and load a KSCATEGORY_BDA_RECEIVER_COMPONENT filter and it connects to the tuner, then it's either the capture or demod. If you then enum and load another KSCATEGORY_BDA_RECEIVER_COMPONENT filter that will connect to the first one you've found. Then it's the capture and the first one is the demod.

AFAIK the output pin of capture filters should be majortype: MEDIATYPE_Stream subtype: KSDATAFORMAT_SUBTYPE_BDA_MPEG2_TRANSPORT If the output pin of demod filters doesn't have the same media type then i'll be able to tell if the filter that got loaded first was a capture filter or not. That way i can avoid an extra loop of connection attempts. -------------------- |

I don't think that is going to work, nor that it's necessarily going to be explicitly the same for each set of filters ~
On the one set that I have. It's majortype: MEDIATYPE_Stream subtype: KSDATAFORMAT_SUBTYPE_BDA_MPEG2_TRANSPORT out of both ie Tuner[IF] KSDATAFORMAT_TYPE_BDA_IF_SIGNAL [IF]Demod[MPEG2 TS] KSDATAFORMAT_SUBTYPE_BDA_MPEG2_TRANSPORT [MPEG2 TS]Capture[MPEG2 TS] KSDATAFORMAT_SUBTYPE_BDA_MPEG2_TRANSPORT ...... I think just use my approach. It's more than fast enough ![]() |

nate,
These are the errors I get when using your version. Error when closing window any time. QUOTE Runtime error Error when exiting via the command promptProgram: C:\ scanChannelsBDA.exe R6025 -Pure virtual function call QUOTE AppName: scanchannelsbda.exe AppVer: 2.0.0.0 ModName: scanchannelsbda.exe ModVer: 2.0.0.0 Offset: 0000b7e0 I compiled your code and I do not get any errors on my compiled version so I guess this means that there maybe a SDK version difference. I'm running XP SP2 and SDK Summer edition 2003 still. I will pop my compiled version on the host site for a bit if someone wants to see if this fixes it for them. EDIT: Zeb, can you pm me a copy of your latest WS channel scan from directshow.log if your using the latest test capture engine y+11 that is. nate, I just noticed that I have the same problem as zeb with SBS, ![]() EDIT 2: nate, Would it be a good idea to include the Teletext pids after the channel number for those that need them rather than using verbrose? |

No worries Nate "I feel the need, the need for speed" ![]() QUOTE QUOTE (ZeB @ Nov 15 2004, 05:08 AM) My input frequency is 474000 and my output frequenzy is 530000 My understanding is that whilst the frequency can be inserted into the TransportStream info when encoding. Once that is done it is generally not updated if for example the broadcaster retransmits the entire TS as a repeater service on another frequency... 530000 is presumably the original tranmission frequency of who ever originally encoded the TS ~ and it is being rebroadcast in your area on 474000. Whilst you have a different broadcast on 530000 |

I'm running XP SP2 and SDK Summer edition 2003 still. I will pop my compiled version on the host site for a bit if someone wants to see if this fixes it for them. I'm still using the 9b DXSDK so that's probably the reason. I was meaning to install the summer edition but i guess i never got around to it.QUOTE nate, I just noticed that I have the same problem as zeb with SBS, In verbose mode does it show these other frequencies? If there is a frequency list descriptor in the TS then it should say "Found a frequency list descriptor" and then be followed by a list of alternate frequencies. The only channel i noticed this information in here in Melb was channel 9, but i could have missed SBS. I'll have another look tonight.![]() I think what i'll need to do is use the manually entered frequency if it doesn't match (±1000Khz) one of the frequencies in the TS. Does 1000 sound like a good number? or should i go with 3500 (half of bandwidth)? QUOTE Would it be a good idea to include the Teletext pids after the channel number for those that need them rather than using verbrose? Yep. That's very easy to do.

I would ignore the frequency in the TS and use the one you physically tuned to. I will be interested to see if your +/- 125 KHz approach helps people. Because my understanding is that the tuner hardware is meant to 'capture' a signal within this bucket automatically
