With PogDVB i have sometimes some signal about 76%, but no level. It's always stay's black. Only the EPG i can read.

The seccond picture, here i used the driver i found here. Thisone is working, but not all channels. Maby a bad tuner ?? My experiece with sharp is not bad, Do you know how i can test the tuner ?.

I go try DVB Dream en let you know

In ProgDVB settings, device, please select LME DVBS device that shows ver. 1.26 and 1.29.
This works in ProgDVB ver 6.30.01 for me.
In DVB Dream Please select 0288 device upon install. This works good for me.

you can see it here, when i change the driver in DVBprog I have the first few seccond sometimes longer signal and level like in picture 1. Screen stays black on different channels. Picture 2 shows signal, no level. And you can see the driver is 2 times on the list.
Picture 3 this driver not works at all

Hi Solomine-

What version of ProgDVB are you using?

ProgDVB is often flaky about reporting SQ and SL.
The black screen is either a codec issue or your tuner is broken.

I had the same symptoms in BlazeDTV before the tuner stopped working.

Does BlazeDTV do this same thing?

If it's any consolation, LME does read posts here. They may report to QQ Manufacturing about how many bad tuners there shipping.

Hi Adam,

I'm use the ProgDVB 6.32.0.

Like you cn see on both pictures there is some video signal and audio. On both channels. The FTA channel stay's black. Sometime's i hear a little sound.

Only with the DVBS_SHARP7395_20090317_x86_x64 driver

Blazer gives good level and signal. Scanning channels is posible. Only blazer work verry bad.

Hi Solomine-

Please explain your setup more. I gather you have CA for the encrypted channels. Are they running on a PCI card with a cam for smart card?

How do you have the QQ Box set up? Is it used in ProgDVB at the same time as your subscription card and in the same computer?

I notice that ProgDVB is not re[porting SQ or SL for either FTA or Sub channels.

Picture of what's inside Sharp tuner.

I think the sharp tuner is broke, i tried different program like DVBprog, Blazer and dvb Dream.

On the transponder 12.515 GHz. H 22.000 5/6 avery thing stays black
12.344 GHz. H 27.500 3/4 work fine

Like that i have some transponders who works fine other transponders stays on black.

The question is is the sharp tuner realy sharp or chinese fake.

I used the box with a simple setup is a 60 cm antenne with a single alp LNB. It's on the astra 1 on 19.2E

Hi Solomine-

Yes the Sharp tuners are made in China. So much stuff is today. It is the only way to compete for low prices.

Both Boxes I got from QQ Manufacturing have bad Sharp Tuners. LME is a good company in China. But this manufacturer who makes these QQ Boxes is not proud of their work. They will not respond to my emails. They don't care.

But the customer will remember.
