I have an HTPC I built. Has an AMD chip and a Radeon card. Running DVBviewer and Technotrend tt3200.

I think I must have made a mistake loading codec packs instead of individual codecs. I make selections of one codec or another and the computer basically ignores the selection and does what it wants. I think this is why I don't get S-2.

Can someone tell me how to entirely delete all codecs and codec packs so I can start over?
I would appreciate it

Codecs installed on your PC may be divided on supplied with OS and installed by you with some Video Players and Codec Packs. I wouldn't advice to remove Codecs supplied with OS, but they can be selectively deactivated in WinXP via Control Panel - Sound and Audio Devices - Hardware - Audio & Video Codecs.

Codecs installed by you, can be safely removed:

a) uninstall Codec Packs and Players that installed extra Codecs via Control Panel - Add & Remove Programs;
b) Download and install Graphedit to see remaining Codecs List via its Menu;
c) Download and install DirectShow Filter Manager. Delete Codecs from the List of filters it compiles on your PC. Look in GraphEdit, if anything left;
d) Run regsvr32 quartz.dll to repair standard OS codec links in your system;
e) DONE

In Win7 you may want to use similar OS features to deactivate and delete Codecs, and then clean the rest with Win7DSFilterTweaker instead of DirectShow Filter Manager.

Once you uninstalled all extra codecs, it may be a good idea to consider installing latest HD Pack to support quality sat channels playback via your Sat Viewer.

Have fun... :)

Thank you much for responding. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, but some pressing personal matters came up.

I haven't tried your method yet, but I will.

Thanks again

I just wanted to thank you. I didn't do the whole Graphedit download, but I did do as you suggested to delete all codecs and codec packs.

Then I selectively downloaded single codecs, namely ffdshow, and the Elecard and Etymonix trials. For the very first time I have gotten S-2 stations - the Reelz, Bloomberg (91w)and the Scripps mux on 135w(now dark). Thanks and I will never download a codec pack ever again.

You are very welcome. Don't be so hard against codec packs though, just more careful reading user feedback. :)

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

I'm getting fabulous picture on Ch. 148 4k, but zero audio with H713. This is with a recorded show (Notre Dame game). Anyone else have this? Audio is fine on every other channel.

It's a known issue.
For a temporary fix, go into the menu, Audio, and turn Dolby Audio "OFF". You will have PCM stereo audio.

I was able to give the tech ops team some data logs so they could diagnose the problem, and they rolled me back to H708 temporarily. It fixed that issue.

They let me know that they understand what caused the issue, and it will be fixed within a few weeks in a new update.

I guess they will be busy when lots of people start asking for rollbacks to H708 now that you mention that downgrades of software does exist because it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner and the IR Remote problems in H710-H713.

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

I have gotten back into watching SG-1 and I have recorded most of the episodes to binge watch. What episodes are about the Antarctic or was this a movie? Also where could I watch the SG-1 movies?

Well, there are a couple involving the Antarctic. "Solitudes", S1 E17 (one of my favorites), Then, "Lost City', S7 E21 and E22. Then, in the SGA pilot, "Rising", S1 E1 and E2, it starts out in the Antarctic for about the first 20 minutes or so.

Which one has O'Neil being Ancients? I am at the end of Season 8 now.

If I understand your question, O'Neill had the Ancient's knowledge in the "Lost City" two-part episode. That was when Anubis attacked Earth and there was a big battle over Antarctica.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.
