Post reply to topic: CANT Work
hey i had to just reinstall vista and had dabdig working perfectly before but now i cant get it to work at all. i am using the purchased dvbviewer and have used the correct settings i have even tried renaming my channels in digiguide to the exact match from dvbviewer but no luck. the furthest ive gotten is it sends the msg to dvbviewer and i get the message for eg. RECORDING BBC 1 UNTIL 12.30 but the channel doesnt change and i look in the timer in dvbviewer and its completly blank. i tried using the map file also with several combinations. has anyone got any idea what im doing wrong?? please help i really loved this program. Just to complete the story ... this was resolved soon after the email exchange. The problem was traced to the date/time format being used on the Windows machine. We already knew that DVBViewer used the local settings for the date divider (and hence this is configurable in DABDig) but had not realised that it used the complete local date/time syntax. The Windows machine was set to us USA date format ... so DVBViewer required this in its API calls. Changed DABDig to make configurable the entire date field that is sent to DVBViewer (with the default set to the standard for Europe of dd/mm/yyyy). This worked fine and will form part of the 2.60 release. If you need this version before it has been released then contact me. DABDig creator e-mail sent mate Send me an email and I'll send you the old version. DABDig creator is there any chance u can upload dabdig version 2.57b12 for me because that is what i used before? please i wish i could say that fixed it but it did nothing sorry. did u download my version of dvbviewer? and you have a working with dabdig? can u upload your setup including map so i can see ? Might have found it ... DateDivider Looks like you have changed it from / to - It is set to / in the extract that you posted - but I see "-" being used in the dabdig.txt Also - another that is different from the default is DVBVIEWERAPIP1=$CP/$CN Should be vertical bar between $CP and $CN but forum seems to change it. See the dabdig.htm for defaults. EDIT: However, I see from elsewhere that this should not matter - so ignore (datedivider is still needed though) See also this posting on the DVBViewer forum (especially the 8th July 2008 one) http://www.dvbviewer.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=11143 COM API only available with paid for Pro version ... which I don't have. I remember now that I wrote it using the SDK Help text but never able to test it. But as you have seen before ... it can work! DABDig creator Edited by Paul Webster on Friday, September 04, 2009 - 10:15:40 AM 4.2.1.0 the latest release is what i have Which version of DVBViewer? (I'll go and get the same one) DABDig creator the channel number in brackets was a random test by me it didnt work obviously. but i tried BBC 1=2847 and it still didnt work. same old story it displays RECORDING BBC 1 UNTIL A TIME and here is the log for that try 9/4/2009 5:17:11 PM - 2.59b26 - Trace:1 - "RECORD" "BBC 1" "1" "The Weakest Link" "2009" "09" "04" "17" "15" "45" "Anne Robinson presents the quick-fire general knowledge quiz in which contestants must decide at the end of each round which of their number should be eliminated.

I can see all sorts of odd things in there - e.g. channel number in brackets. The last oe looks like the right sort of mapping - but not sure how you chose the number. Looks like it should be like this in dabdig.map BBC 1=2847 Does DVBViewer maintain any logs? DABDig creatorvideogamingtown Paul Webster
