SS2 Sat and Terrestrial ??

[giorusso]

...I just received a AirStar 2 (from Technisat 4 dvb-T) that I'd like to use in the same pc as my SkyStar 2 Sat(rev. 2.6C)...question: can these 2 cards live togheter in the same pc ? I think the both use the same B2C2 chip (or not ?) and similar drivers, so I'd like to have opinion about possible incompatibility.

Tnx.

We never managed to get two SS2 cards working together. But since you have two cards you can test it yourself.

There are possibilities to run 2 cards!

 

But they doesn't work stable here.....

 

here a look here:

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\B2C2, Inc.\Common

 

and the "AdapterIndex" value....

 

there you can change the values to 0 / 1. That will cheat the filters and you will be able to tune 2 channels over 2 cards.

 

But as the DVBViewer doesn't allow to start twice you will need to use DVBViewer & ProgDVB or any similar Programm to test it. If you will be successfull i'm sure christian will add an option to allow multiple instances.

 

The Adapter thingie is a filter specific thing, therefore you will need to change the options before tuning EVERY time if you want to use a different card

 

I wanted to make a plugin for DVBV but as i only got a lot of BSODs i didn't want to publish a tool where i would get masses of mail why i wouldn't be working... anyway.... if you can manage to get it working i'm really interested in the way how you have configurated the whole stuff... :-)

 

enough... now it's your turn :-)

 

... i was using 1xPCI / 1xUSB
