Frequent error / driver not detected

Frequent error / driver not detected

Postby dogman » Fri Sep 05, 2014 12:51 am

I am absolutely fed up with this card.

I frequently get the following when trying to use the card.

'Cannot initialize DVB hardware! ErrorCode:1
Application will work in offline mode.

Usually I can get it working again by uninstalling the card and the driver then reinstalling. Sometimes it would take a few attempts.
Today, I have done this many, many, many times and always the above error.

It doesn't seem to matter what driver I use but seems to be worst with the very latest driver, 1.0.23 or whatever it is.

Any advice please?

I am running windows 8.1 64 bit. When the card works, it is excellent but it is so temperamental and I have lost all my patience!

It took me 3 days this time to get the card working again!

I powered down the computer totally, removing the plug.

Then rebooted after a few minutes and the card was detected again.

I am sick and tired of the problems I have had with this card so will not be buying another TBS card when this one finally dies!

Tested for a couple of minutes and I did NOT have that problem you mention.

Should I try a longer test?

I think I have seen something similar before with my card. It looks very familiar, but I cannot remember when or what channels were affected.

No need a long test, artefacts show with my card anytime, and on any other commercial channels 13E 12478 H 29900 KBS WORLD HD, 13E 12476 H 29900 RT HD. My priority with this card is watch sports feed located od 7E, 10E, 16E etc., where this feeds have high bitrate and maybe 60% have artefacts, but few days ago card no showing this artefacts.... In this time card on second rma... i am waiting conclusion from buyer...

Is it not a codec problem?

I wish I could remember when and what channels I have seen this problem on.

I seem to recall that I fixed it by using a different codec, but I am fairly sure that there were a few occasions when I could not solve the problem no matter what codec I used.


If I encounter this again, I will make notes.

If you tried it on another computer then it does sound like the card is faulty.
