Just got one semi-working DSR-4530 (LCD panel is very dim, barely readable) but at the bargain price, can't complain much :) the firmware is 00018C:00018E:00000 (and similar to previous posters, I have non-configurable Gig-E output). Turbo-8PSK modulation is also not selectable from the menu...

SkyWalker-3 can NOT lock it :( SR is too slow for it, probably.

Strange. Looking at your signature, I can not understand why you can not lock. My SkyWalker-1 locks just fine (though, as you can see, signal strength is rather low). Also, my SkyWalker-1 reports that it's 12122MHz (2MHz off). Some Tuners (DVB-s card) may need to know exact frequency for...

and yes, it's slow locking (on slow SR). It takes about 6 seconds (from hitting "Tune" button) until TSreader finally locks the signal on 11944 V 1481 (DVB-s QPSK) And it does not matter whether I select FEC = "Auto" or "1/2" (the same 6 seconds).

I have very weak signal from 123 sat on my 36" disn. For instance, I get only 5.7dB (SNR) from 11773 V 3361 (DVB-S2 QPSK 3/4) I can not lock 11840 V 1784. I don't know the reason, but it could be just because it's too weak.

so, let me get this straight: you are using linear polarized LNB to tune to circular polarized signal and asking why you don't get a lock?

anybody saw DVB-S2 TP with SR faster then 30msps in Ku band (reachable from West Coast of US)? Please let me know, I'd like to tune it as well

Actually, I do have this chip, and I even have several silicon revisions of this chip. These different revisions have slightly different capabilities. But guess what: neither of them is working with Turbo-coded modulations. This flimsy-two-page-brief-chip-description may say many good things...

Dishnetwork has absolutely no rights on Turbo-coded error correction. Even Broadcom has no IPs in that field. Broadcom got a license from France Telecom to use Turbo-code algorithm (check this document - http://www.spectralicensing.com/pdfs/BrcmSpecPR.pdf). I don't even mention 8PSK here...

Coax cable from dish should be connected to "Satellite input" connector of your receiver (or DVB-s card). "tv tuner" is a term which is usually used for terrestrial analog reception. these things are incompatible.

get my genpix Linux driver as a starting point (it's open source, you know :) ). I don't think your board is very different, you can get a working driver withing a day or two. not aware about PCI version either. Even more, nowdays small motherboards have fewer and fewer PCI slots (for...

Actually, 480Mbps is a theoretical maximum speed for USB 2.0. Due to some overhead, in real life, sustained speed is up to about 320Mbps (on more or less recent Intels chipsets; I'm not talking here about very old USB 2.0 chipsets). Still, 320Mbps is much faster then any transport stream I...

btw, there is NO single DVB-s card which can not receive MPEG-4 :) cause MPEG-4 is signal content (not signal modulation or FEC). All DVB-s cards receive analog signal (modulated for retransmission), and convert it into transport stream (digital stream). And neither DVB-s card cares about...

and 119 gives stronger singnal then 110 (cause there are spotbeams on it; and some of them could be beamed into your area - IRD shows signal strength 125% and higher). It's easy to aim with handheld sat finder.

this 8x1 switch is already TWO switches inside one enclosure. DP Twin - one more Diseqc switch. I doubt that MT supports three cascaded DISEqC switches. Try to check 8x1 switch with a scope/voltmeter first. Configure both addresses (1st and 2nd) to 10. And use repeat for second switch. PS...

simple DISEqC switches pass DC to one input only. So, they are easy to debug/develope code: just hook-up a voltmeter to the selected input and start sending diseqc commands. You would see the result immediately. You don't need to connect inputs to LNBs and use Sat signal analysis. At least, i...

There is no HDTV capabele on uncapable soft-DVB-s cards. They don't do the decoding in hardware anyway. And SR=21500 is still below the maximum possible for average card. So, symbol rate is not a show stopper. The reason why you can't get HD from DN is inability of your card to decode 8PSK Turbo...

the statement "This software add support DVB-S2 playing HDTV(H.264/MPEG2&MPEG4) and playing SDTV" does NOT mean that USB2.0 DVBWorld Sat is DVB-S2 :-) Actually, it's very hard to make sense from their statement at all, cause they don't have any DVB-S2 device in the product list on their...

non taken :-) Actually, there is no DCII support yet, you were absolutely right. I did not have time to focus on that. In addition, I still need to install a motorized dish to jump from one Sat to another (and play with different modulations). I used my spare time to get better performance of...

could you please give me some more info about Sat/TPs you were looking for? I'd like to point my dish there to see DCII. Who knows, I might get "lucky" and start to do analysis with my cripple board :-)
