#0011 Bug EPG-programming short before a begining event 27.06.2002 Galberon Example: If a boradcast starts at 20:15 and you enter the EPG at 20:10, it's not possible to program the event by pressing the or button anymore. You have either wait and to start at 20:15 manually, or you have to program it over the menu. Some users mean, that it would be nice, if you could start the recording of an already started broadcast from the EPG too (e.g. at 20:20). pending No ? ? We cannot find the problem with the captured stream which we have. So, the test will be postponed till the test trip.
#0017 Bug Receiver hangs 16.07.2002 RFS Some users reported that the receiver suddenly "hangs" and doesn't respond any more. I had seen this when I zapped over a channel that had changed the AID. On TP12551, SID 3997, PMT 49 with PCR 168, AID 144, VID 168 was till recently "Astra Vision". Now there is the "RTL Shop" using AID169. But until I changed the AID to the correct value I could not leave that channel once I switched to it other than changing into Standby. pending No ? ? Actually, I cannot grap the picture. If you change the APID to incorrect value, the system recovers it from the PMT parsing. So, I think that the system should trace the correct A/V PID value. One of the possible scenarios for this problem is that PMT is changed. (Even that condition, the system will not hang up.) Can you tell me the PMT after rescanning that TP?
#0022 Bug Cutting Files 13.08.2002 Anthea Sometimes the receiver hangs while cutting a file. The playback continues till the end of the recording, but no interaction is possible any more except switching the receiver off. After a restart the cutting is possible without problems pending No ? ? Well, I have not experienced it yet. Anyway, we will test it more.
#0023 Bug Inexact cutting 13.08.2002 Anthea The cutting of files is rather inexact by now. Could the behaviour changed to cut the file at the moment you press the blue button instead of where you landed with the last << or >> pending Yes Yes Maybe next version or not.
#0024 Bug Playback bar vanishes 13.08.2002 Anthea Sometimes when I try to cut a file the playback bar just vanishes. Sometimes it vanishes immediately after showing it (pressing the > button), sometimes it takes some time (but most of the time it vanishes the moment before I press the >|< button) pending No ? ? We will test it more.
#0027 Wish Search current transponder 13.08.2002 The Horse Is it possible to add a function in the channel search to "search current transponder on current satellite" for new channels? pending No We cannot understand why this mode needs. Would you explain when it is useful?
#0028 Wish Add new channel 13.08.2002 Horst Is it possible to manually add a new channel instead of searching it? pending No This function seems to be good to the high-end users. But, I wonder that it is confusing to the most users.
#0031 Bug Strange behavior when moving channels 10.11.2002 Anthea "When moving channels in the channel editor the receiver suddenly starts to act unpredictable. It jumps up and down the channel list when I press the P+/P- buttons(up to 300 channels up/down), selects multiple channels, moves them... If I press ""EXIT"" as soon as I see that behaviour (to minimize the wrong moved channels) and start again, everything works fine again. But after some time that behaviour starts again." pending No ? ? If you select "Sort" in the Organizing Channles, there cannot be no operation in the individual services. From your comment (selects multiple channels, moves them..), I wonder that the current operation is not "Sort". Frankly speaking, I cannot understand why it works such a way neither find the problem here. Is there any specific way to make it work so?
#0033 Wish Direct access to recording menu 10.11.2002 Anthea "Many people ask for direct access buttons for the recording menu from EPG as well as directly from the normal operation. For the EPG some users said the button with the clock could be used. Some think that the UHF-Button is rather useless and should be used for that. One button that has no function till now during normal operation, timeshift and EPG mode is the ""repeat"" button (see also #0024)" pending Yes ? ? The UHF key should not be changed to other functions even though I also agree that the UHF key is not so much used. But, your advice (e.g. repeat key) shall be discussed at the next release.
#0034 Bug Progress bar vanished during cutting 10.11.2002 Anthea "When cutting a file I still have problems that the progress bar suddenly vanishes. Even if I did press the repeat button and the Cut-beginning-mark can be seen the progress bar vanishes before I have a chance to press >> or << to mark the selection, and then I have to restart again." pending No ? ? I'm sorry that we tried it so many times but failed to catch.
#0035 Bug Analog sound vanishes 20.11.2002 Hatsenichalle One user reports that some recordings suddenly won't send a analog sound, only the DolbyDigital sound. After some days, those recordings were OK again, but some other recordings won't deliver analog sound. pending No ? ? Actually, we have no idea about it. Any particular condition to make it?
#0036 Bug First Subtitle line is missing 31.12.2002 martin When watching a widescreen movie on the Swedish TV4 the first subtitling line is missing and the second line shows where the first line normally go. pending No ? ? We got the report about this problem already. We will capture and fix it at the test trip in near future.
#0037 Bug Long Subtitles are cut 31.12.2002 martin Sometimes a few characters are missing at the end of the long subtitling lines on the Swedish TV4. Can the problem be that the lines are longer than 40 characters pending No ? ? Do you know the service information where the problem appears?
#0038 Bug Receiver "hangs" in EPG 31.12.2002 Anthea Sometimes when switching channels with EPG active the receiver stops responding. Only switching it of can solve the problem (might be related to 0039) pending No ? ?
#0039 Bug Receiver response is suddenly slow 31.12.2002 Anthea Sometimes the receiver responses to the RCU get very slow, up to 20-40 seconds. It seems that the CPU has suddenly a very high load and doesn't get to the end of doing whatever it does... Sometimes switching the channel resolves the problem, sometimes not. Even shutting it off by RCU takes very long, those blinking dots show for about 20 seconds. pending No ? ? Can you give me more information (for examle, service name,…) about that situation?
#0043 Bug Problems with Conax CI 05.01.2003 jre "I inserted my first (1) Conax card into the embedded slot. All the channels encrypted with this card shows fine. Then I insert a Conax CAM into one of the CA slots and also insert a second (2) Conax card into the CAM. And here is the problem; these channels does not show correctly i.e. there is a ""No Access"" pop-up on the picture. Also if I first insert the card No 2 to the embedded slot and then the card No 1 with the CAM to CA slot (1st or 2nd slot no difference) the same ""No Access"" pop-up appeards on the screen for the card No 1 now. It seem that the order you insert the cards is the ""key point"" here. Meaning that the card I inserted first (into the embedded reader or CAM) works fine and second one gets the ""No Access"" pop-up. Any ideas how to get rid of these ""No Access"" pop-ups?" pending No ? ? I tried it several times with changing the sequences but failed to find the problem. I wonder that "No Access" message is from CAM or smart card because our firmware has no such string. Anyway, we will keep in mind to test it when we go to the test trip.
#0044 Bug Reservation Timer during playback 10.01.2003 frankie A reservation is made by EPG. If you playback a recording at the time when the reservation is executed, the receiver interprets the channel-change-command as if that numbers were entered by RCU, and so it takes it as jump-command by % in the playback. pending No ? ? It is very strange to hear that. I think that there is something unknown conditions to make such a bug. For normal test, I cannot find the problem.
#0045 Bug Dark Scenes generate playback errors 10.01.2003 Johnvdv If a recorded service is played back, and has very dark scenes (as often seen in video clips on MTV Central, and also in some other recordings e.g. "The Mexican" or "Finding Forester" from Canal+ Blue) there are several sound dropouts. pending No ? ? I could not test it because we have no such streams and failed to find the services with very dark scenes.
#0047 Wish Conformation for automatic format 10.01.2003 Lum It already occured to several users that they either accidentally put a wrong disk into the TF, or the receiver suddenly didn't recognize it's own HDD. Then the HDD is automatically formated, and everything previously recorded is lost. Would it be possible to activate a confirmation box for this? pending Yes ? ?
#0048 Wish Automatic Bookmarks 10.01.2003 CouchPotatoe Would it be possible to automatically insert a bookmark when viewing the film and pressing "stop" so you can continue there the next time you start that recording again? pending Yes ? ? We have to consider more because it may confuse some users.
#0049 Bug Icons not shown on 16:9 10.01.2003 satfanatic The position-shift for the info-boxes etc. that can be activated in the menu, could that be applied to the icons in the right upper corner, too? (Playback, Record, TimeShift) Because now the vanish on 16:9 TV sets pending Yes ? ? It seems a good idea.
#0050 Bug Picture errors during delayed recording 16.01.2003 Ctee When something is recorded from PCNE (Eurobird, 28,5 East, 11.565 V) by delayed recording, during the recording many picture errors and sound errors occur. This doesn't happen when watching the service without recording, and doesn't even happen if the recording is started manually. This seems not to happen with the software from April 10 2002 pending pending ? ? We checked its possibilities between Apr 10th 2002 version and May 6th 2002 version but have no idea. Mmmm… It seems very hard to trace it because it is scrambled service. We have to get the smart card….
#0052 Bug Mute and Timeshift on VCR-Scart 22.01.2003 Anthea If the receiver is muted, and I use TimeShift, the sound on the VCR-Scart connector is suddenly there again, even though the mute-symbold is still displayed. If I press mute again, the symbol vanishes, and the next press on mute switches the sound off again... till the next timeshift-related command. The behaviour on the TV-Scart is correct pending Yes Yes Next version The mute will work on scart switch and audio decoder. There is a bug in TF4000PVR that the mute of audio decoder is released if picture is restarted. But, the scart switch has no mute for VCR scart. So, you found this problem… Actually, we muted only scart switch about one year ago. But, some users requested to mute the SPDIF also. To mute SPDIF, we have to mute audio decoder and this makes VCR mute. I think that muting VCR scart is not good so we may fix this problem by not muting the VCR scart and SPDIF.
#0053 Wish Change service name automatically 24.01.2003 TriaxMan If the service changes the name, could the receiver automatically update the name in the channel list? pending Yes No
#0054 Bug Receiver hangs after rename and cut 24.01.2003 Alex If you start the playback of a recorded service, then change the name of the recording, and then start cutting the recording without stopping the playback after the rename, as soon as you confirm the cut, the receiver stops responding. The file is played back till the end, but any other RCU-command than OFF is not accepted. The cut is not done. pending Yes Yes Next version
#0055 Bug No Teletext on Turksat 1.C (42 east) 24.01.2003 friend The teletext of the services on Turksat 1.C is not shown, e.g. for ATV..(10956-V-5632). pending No Could you test it with other receivers? We have no stream to test here in Korea. Maybe, we can test it at test trip.
#0056 Bug Incomplete EPG 24.01.2003 Anthea When the receiver is running for a while, after switching to a service on another transponder the EPG data is not shown completely, especially the data of the next 3-4 hours is missing, or only the current event is missing. If the receiver is switched off and on again, all data is shown completely. pending No ? ? If the number of events exceeds the max. number specified in TF4000PVR, some EPG data may be lost in case of changing the channels quickly. But, after some time, the EPG will be restored by deleting other data. Not? The EPG capacity in TF4000PVR is not so much due to memory capacity. It will be increased in TF5000PVR.
#0056 Wish EPG display on wrong field use of service 24.01.2003 Anthea Some services seem to send the EPG data in the wrong "field". AFAIR the content is in 3 fields: Title, short info, long info. And those services don't transmit the long info, but send a very long description in the short info field. And the receiver cuts the text off after a specific number of characters. Would it be possible to extend the short info if needed, or even copy the short info into the long info if no long info is transmitted, so that the whole text is displayed for those services? pending Yes No
#0057 Wish Re-Send DiSEqC command on user request 27.01.2003 topcat Some DiSEqC-Switches don't get the command correctly at the first time. Would it be possible to implement a command on one of the RCU-buttons to re-send the DiSEqC-command? (user has a TF3000CoCI) pending No The DiSEqC command will be issued periodically (several seconds) if the tuning status is unlocked.
#0058 Bug Decrypted playback has picture errors (#0019 continued) 18.02.2003 The Horse The playback is enhanced in Version from 13.02.2003. Everything works fine, until the progress bar is shown and used to scroll forward/backward, or the sound channel is changed. Then the playback errors are back again pending No ? ? Which channels?
#0059 Bug Robo-Sound is back (#0016) 18.02.2003 Steff The Robo-Sound is back in the Version from 13.02.2003. Users reported a "double occurance", that the sound is first disturbed, then OK, and then disturbed again. One user (Heiner) even reported that the sound disturbance is in a manual recording, after 57 minutes, in a fixed place pending No ? ?
#0060 Bug ProgramInfo not updated 18.02.2003 hermansen The user reports that for his usage on satellite THOR the program info is not updated till he changes the channel (and back) pending What is program info? Current event name? If so, it is strange that it is fixed long time ago.
#0061 Bug EPG Time context lost 18.02.2003 hermansen Sometimes after zapping through different channels and then activating the EPG, the time context is lost, and not the current program is shown, but the first in the list. pending No ? ?
#0062 Bug Wrong EPG language 18.02.2003 hermansen For services that offer EPG in different languages, only the default language is shown, not the one selected one. C+Yellow and C+Blue have EPG information and ProgramInfo in 4 languages. They are Norwegian, Danish, Swedish and Finnish. Even though the user selected "norwegian" as language for his receiver, the EPG and ProgramInfo are shown in Danish pending No ? ? When we were in Danmark last Feb., we found that some channels have just one or two language EPG data not 4 languages all. Could you re-confirm that those services have 4 language epg? BTW, what is satellite/TP of C+xxx services?
#0063 Bug EPG content not shown in alternate EPG 18.02.2003 Doodler When using 'alternative' EPG layout (toggled by red button), the information for a channel does not appear when you select that channel, but rather after you have selected another one. And when changing channels in this EPG layout, the time context seems to be lost, as in #0061 pending No ? ?
#0064 Wish EPG download for more satellites 18.02.2003 Doodler Could the EPG download be configured to download more than one satellite? pending No
#0064 Wish Automatic Descrambling 18.02.2003 Doodler "1. There is a setup option - ""1 channel list only""; this simplifies channel updates etc. for those of us who have a dual LNB off same dish. 2. If above setup option is configured, always record on tuner 2 3. A new timer function can be configured ""play and descramble all recordings"" which can be run overnight." pending No The third wish seems good to be implemented in the next model ( TF5000PVR)
#0065 Bug Receiver hangs instead of recording 18.02.2003 Gerti A delayed recording was programmed, and the tuner in standby. Long after the recording should have been finished the user checks the receiver, and it still shows "rECo", but no picture on the TV. Only switching it off by RCU is possible, and the recording shows the correct duration, but has 0kB recorded. pending No ? ? More tests need.
