hi there,

i had the problem that the decoder downloaded the files from tv-hdd, started to decoding, but wasn't creating the desired .ts file on lan-cable connected pc.
after some testing i changed the decoder's working directory from default (/dtv/usb/sda1) to another one (now: /mtd_rwcommon/temp).
now it works perfectly ! the decoded .ts is created and is playable on vlc / mpc.

also i had to adjust the programme / firewall settings in kaspersky manually. set everything on allowed, also set everything under "exceptions"
done it for the samyGOPVRDecoder.exe, netcat.exe and drmdecrypt.exe.
just turning off kaspersky won't work !!

maybe this helps.


tested on win7-ultimate x64
tv is a ue46f6470 - FW 1112

Why would you decode to TV storage ?

Most people use C:\TEMP as workfolder, and something like C:\MOVIES as .ts-output folder.
You must be experiencing very slow decoding

oops,
i meant i changed the "tv working tool-directory" (in decoder settings).

output folder for .ts files and working folder (both on main screen) are set to pc of course. (e.g. F:\temp)

[Lordbyte]

When you run the program for the first time, "TV working folder" is set to MTD_RWCOMMON
Any other setting is due to user changing it.

Maybe I (we) should consider "documenting" this settings .. Placing a USB-path here is just .. wrong
Not wrong as in "wrong" .. just .. not right ..

I'm using a Samsung UE46F6470 and I like SamyGO PVRDecoder but on all recordings that i made, I have only one language. But the TV Channels are always send in 2 languages: German and English. I'm getting allways one language when I'm using this tool.

[bugficks]

can you switch language in non-decrypted PVR at all?

That is beyond the scope of the PVRDecoder. The PVRDecoder simply converts an encrypted .ts- file into a non-encrypted .ts file.
What different devices afterwards chooses to do with the .ts files is of no consern to the PVRDecoder.

What you need to do, is to select what streams inside the decrypted .ts to keep, and which to discard, and so on ..
At the same time you get a chance to cut out commercials and other stuff, if you use a tool like http://www.cypheros.de/tsdoctor_e.html

After this process, you should be in control of what content is shown, and what is not.

That's the problem, TS Doctor shows me only ONE language and the record is original in 2 languages. I can switch between the languages on my TV with the encrypted file. After remove the encryption I have only one language in TS Doctor.

Thats somewhat strange, I agree - but its still not related to the decoder.

The decoder has NO idea about concepts like "movie, audio, text, food, streams, cows or summervacations".

The decoder retrives a binary file from TV, and converts (decrypt) it byte-by-byte (16 by 16 actually) to a new binary file.
OK, now you have a decrypted binary file .. And the PVRDecoder is all done, and is out of the equation.

The claim is, that whatever TV put into the file is still there ... just no longer encrypted.

Anyway, - At THIS point we can begin to discover what the content of the file is ... (I know, - we already know, but for sakes of understanding whats going on).

So, - In this specific case the binary file turns out to be a so called Transport Stream file (.ts).

The ts-file-format is well suited to carry Audio and Video and Teletext and such.

Many different players will figure out that the .ts contain a mpeg-stream, and offer to play it.

Why TS-Doctor misses out on your language, I have no idea .. But I assure you .. if .ts is at ALL playable,
it contains the exact same data as the original encrypted file ..
