digitalj Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I'm confused i have a TwinTuner...I have one tuner scanned showing PrimeHD in 720x576 - MPEG2 I have my other tuner showing 1440x1080i - AC3 The 1440x1080i channel is cutting out sound and stuttering every few seconds. This is on "Planet of the Apes" Anyone know what's going on? Try rescanning both tuners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freak Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Thanks for the reply, i rescanned both tuners... I now get the 1440x1080i - AC3, but every program is stuttering like mad, it's unwatchable... Sound and vision skips every 2 -3 seconds, Media Portal, DNTV Live, and Hypermedia are all doing the same thing. All other Prime channels and other HD channels are working fine.... Anyone else in Canberra having any issues like this.... Finally we get 1080i prime, and it's worse than 576p..... (Oh the irony....) I hope it's teething issues on Primes part.

It only seems to be my FusionHDTV program playing up with PRIME 1080i. I can see PRIME HD when I turn on Picture in picture in the Pip window, but I can't see it on the main window. But it seems to be just the FusionHDTV software because I can record PRIME HD with webscheduler and play it back without any problems with VLC player and edit with VideoReDo (In case you were wondering how I got my screenies).

Freak ;dont know how you have your hdcp configured; but Planet of the apes was 1080i without the AC3 sound - only mpeg -doesnt explain the vision problems though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stickeylabel Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 That was me Though, I feel like I may have made a small mistake down in availability. Oh that's ok, it was only an issue with the invisible tags. It's fixed now . stickeylabel, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibanez5 Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Well my Panasonic is working perfectly on 8 simple rules but my FusionHDTV is skipping.. Even now when 60 redirects to 6, I still get no pic, but sound on FusionHDTV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Thanks for the feedback, i will wait till tuesday to see how it all goes.... I'm not sure why Hypermedia keeps finding AC-3 if it's only MPEG2. (it's the only channel it getting wrong) I will look at manually changing the audio PID's (but yeah don't know why vision would skip) I guess Hypermedia also doesn't support redirection, because at the moment both tuners show 720x576 -AC3 (or 704x480-AC3) and both were playing Planet of the Apes (badly) are just black screens again at the moment. (Rescanning again would likely fix that, however if i leave it until 6pm I'm sure the native HD will appear on it, without scanning.) Media Portal is showing PrimeHD fine (at the moment), however it's obviously just SD. (i'm guessing it autoredirects rather than upconverts?) But no skipping, and i didn't change any settings since last night. DNTV Live also is showing Prime HD this morning, with MPEG2.... (at 720x576) So i guess i just wait before getting worried.... And wait the the next native HD show to "News" and "Ugly Betty" tonight to see what happens. But i also tried recording from Media Portal, and the footage is the same (unwatchable) in playback... (although i didn't try webscheduler) Just work dagnabbit! Thanks for the replies..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Well it seems whatever the problem, it's all working fine now.... 1440x1080i - AC3, National News and Ugly Better are all working perfectly, and have no signs of stuttering or problems...... So all good.... There is a MPEG2 and AC3 PID so it appears to be AC3 to me. (even better) Is Sydney and Melbourne getting 1920x1080i? I would like to see 1920x1080 to see the difference in quality.

Yeah i recorded Alias to see quality, but Resident Evil was only listed on my SD 7 Channel, so i didn't know if it was shown unconverted, or at a real HD res.... It appears my ICETV guide got it wrong, and it was on in HD, shame about the audio though... But hey it's a start.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pietro1503559499 Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 No sound on 60 this morning in Sunrise. I wonder if Albury is having a problem. All other HD channels are fine. I don't suppose re-scanning will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pietro1503559499 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Is Prime 1080i broadcasting in DD anywhere? What are the streams they are transmitting please? I think from Albury it must be just mpeg-2, no DD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaddo Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 my Prime HD in Bendigo has no sound when i set my decoder to Dolby mode. Its fine when its set to MPEG, but then I don't get 5.1 when its available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
