I've been trying to set up DABDig with the Twinhan card and DigiGuide for a couple of days without success.

The DABDig marker works, creates a recording in the TwinhanDTV schedule, and appears to select the right channel. However when the recording tries to start, an error message appears:

"Failed to record the program "[channel name]" It does not exist in the favorite list" - even though it does exist in the favorite list and is highlighted in the list when the program attempts to record.

Things appear to go wrong when DABDig schedules the recording. Even though the correct channel name appears in the schedule, when I click into the details by selecting "modify recording", the channel selected in the drop down menu is always Sky News, the first channel in the favorites list.

I think I've tried all the suggested options in the DABDig guide including mapping channels using dabdig.map, but I'm obviously not doing it correctly as it hasn't helped. If I schedule a recording directly in the VisionDTV software it works fine. Any suggestions anyone? If anyone has a sample dabdig.map for the Twinhan card, that would be a great start.

(I'm using TwinhanDTV PCI card/2.62 software with Digiguide 8.3 and the latest DABDig)

It looks like the root cause of the problem is that TwinHan have revised the format of their channel listings.

So - if you are using 2.6.5 of their software then try modifying some values in dabdig.ini as follows:

VISIONDTVFILEFREQUENCYPOSITION=105

VISIONDTVFILESYMBOLRATEPOSITION=109

VISIONDTVFILEPOLARIZATIONPOSITION=113

VISIONDTVFILEAPIDPOSITION=169
