func onautoitexit()
TCPclosesocket($accepted)
TCPshutdown()
endfunc
$socket = TCPListen($ip, $port)
produces error 10049: "Cannot assign requested address." Probably because it's not local to PC. Try 127.0.0.1

You must declare variables:
Code: Select all
Global $IPaddr, $ip, $port, $start, $socket, $accepted
So the code works for me:
Code: Select all
Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)
Global $IPaddr, $ip, $port, $start, $socket, $accepted
$ip = "192.168.1.10"
$port = "2356"
$start = TCPStartup()
$socket = TCPListen($ip, $port)
While 1
;TCPStartup()
$accepted = TCPAccept($socket)
sleep(500)
If MsgBox(1, "TCP tests", "Start: " & $start & @CRLF & "Listen: " & $socket & @CRLF & "Accept: " & $accepted) = 2 Then
Exit
EndIf
If $accepted <> -1 Then
$recv = TCPRecv($accepted, 5000)
If $recv <> "" Then MsgBox(4096, "recv", $recv)
EndIf
WEnd
func onautoitexit()
TCPclosesocket($accepted)
TCPshutdown()
endfunc
I do not know what result should it give me, but i get pop up with text: "start = true, listen =-1, Accept=-1" . Is it what you need? I didn`t try it with sbav1 app, so i just checked if au3 runs without errors or not.
Check DVB-T signal strength via LAN - Desktop app

Find one error:
@jjw1001 for me need to be 192.168.1.10 and always port 2346 (work when use PuTTy and RAW connection).
@juuso this same for me. First MsgBox is only for check connection with TV. If TCPListen() or TCPAccept() return -1 there is no connection.
There should be all good and then app show next MsgBox with text reads from TV (something like "
78 0 ").

With local loopback or the address assigned to my PC LAN card, I get
Start: True
Listen: 440 (or some other value)
Accept: -1

Hello
This looks like a great tool for use to adjust the satellite dish.
Please could you tell me if this works on Samsung D series.
I have installed the application on my PC, but now need to install the code in the TV. My TV has the SamyGo app installed, and I can FTP to port 23.
If this Signal strength application works on the D series, please can you explain what I need to do to get the TV code installed.
Many thanks and kind regards
