Hello, I am trying to be able to watch Comcast HD stations on my D-3000 card, and am having lots of problems with the reception. I can only find 2 of the channels via the scan, however I was down at the local office today and they had quite a few more local channels listed. The main problem is though is that I only get one good frame out of like 20 it seems. The picture and audio is great when it comes in, but it only comes in for fractions of a second.
Has anyone else had this out of Comcast? I'm in Gray, TN (small market area) so I'm really doubting I'll find anyone on the list where I'm at using the same setup. I have a cable modem and have used the same input, and the cable modem has quite good SnR. Here's what I'm showing in the log files (this is probably TOO much information): 2005-05-14 20:26:20.085 DVB#0 DVB SI Table Parser Started 2005-05-14 20:26:20.086 SIParser: Starting DVB Section Reader thread 2005-05-14 20:26:20.088 DVB#0 Using DVB card 0, with frontend pcHDTV HD3000 HDTV . 2005-05-14 20:26:20.089 DVB#0 Trying to tune to channel 21. 2005-05-14 20:26:20.089 SIParser: Starting SIScanner 2005-05-14 20:26:20.114 New DB connection, total: 3 2005-05-14 20:26:20.159 DVB#0 Mod: 2005-05-14 20:26:20.207 SIParser: About to do a reset 2005-05-14 20:26:20.208 SIParser: Closing all PIDs 2005-05-14 20:26:21.090 SIParser: Resetting all Table Handlers 2005-05-14 20:26:21.120 SIParser: SIParser Reset due to channel change 2005-05-14 20:26:21.148 DVB#0 Waiting for frontend event after tune. 2005-05-14 20:26:21.413 DVB#0 DVB signal dfff | snr fc31 | ber 0 | unc 0 2005-05-14 20:26:21.781 DVB#0 Status: LOCK. 2005-05-14 20:26:21.783 SIParser: Requesting PAT 2005-05-14 20:26:21.784 DVB#0 Multiplex Locked 2005-05-14 20:26:21.816 SIParser: Adding a PMT (2) to the request list 2005-05-14 20:26:22.095 SIParser: Table[0]->RequirePIDs() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.099 SIParser: Adding PID 0 Filter 0 Mask ff Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.102 SIParser: Table[2]->RequirePIDs() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.103 SIParser: Adding PID 1ffb Filter ff Mask 0 Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.125 SIParser: Table[3]->RequirePIDs() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.126 SIParser: Adding PID 1ffb Filter ff Mask 0 Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.444 SIParser: EIT-0 Present on PID 1d00 2005-05-14 20:26:22.446 SIParser: EIT-1 Present on PID 1d01 2005-05-14 20:26:22.447 SIParser: EIT-2 Present on PID 1d02 2005-05-14 20:26:22.448 SIParser: EIT-3 Present on PID 1d03 2005-05-14 20:26:22.450 SIParser: CVCT Present on this Transport 2005-05-14 20:26:22.468 SIParser: Table[2]->Complete() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.469 SIParser: Table[5]->RequirePIDs() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.471 SIParser: Adding PID 1ffb Filter ff Mask 0 Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.472 SIParser: No Private Types defined for NetworkID 1 2005-05-14 20:26:22.474 SIParser: Found Channel 2-1 - WKPT-HD CAStatus=0 Modulat ion=3 2005-05-14 20:26:22.496 SIScan#0: Updating Services 2005-05-14 20:26:22.500 SIScan#0: Service table up to date for this network. 2005-05-14 20:26:22.510 SIParser: PAT Version = 0 2005-05-14 20:26:22.526 SIScan#0: Service Update Complete 2005-05-14 20:26:22.527 SIParser: Tuned to TransportID: 1 2005-05-14 20:26:22.530 SIParser: Services on this Transport: 1 2 2005-05-14 20:26:22.531 SIParser: Table[0]->Complete() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.559 SIParser: Table[1]->RequirePIDs() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.561 SIParser: Adding PID 20 Filter 2 Mask ff Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.768 SIParser: GPS Time Offset = 13 Seconds 2005-05-14 20:26:22.769 SIParser: Table[3]->Complete() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.771 SIParser: Table[4]->RequirePIDs() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:22.772 SIParser: Adding PID 1d00 Filter cb Mask ff Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.774 SIParser: Adding PID 1d01 Filter cb Mask ff Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.775 SIParser: Adding PID 1d02 Filter cb Mask ff Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.802 SIParser: Adding PID 1d03 Filter cb Mask ff Buffer 40960 2005-05-14 20:26:22.981 SIParser: PMT ServiceID: 2 Version = 22 2005-05-14 20:26:22.991 SIParser: Unknown descriptor, tag = 5 2005-05-14 20:26:22.999 SIParser: PID: 33 2005-05-14 20:26:23.035 SIParser: PID: 34 2005-05-14 20:26:23.041 SIParser: PID: 35 2005-05-14 20:26:23.049 SIParser: Unknown descriptor, tag = 17 2005-05-14 20:26:23.057 SIParser: Unknown descriptor, tag = 16 2005-05-14 20:26:23.066 SIParser: Unknown descriptor, tag = 6 2005-05-14 20:26:23.086 SIParser: Unknown descriptor, tag = 134 2005-05-14 20:26:23.091 SIParser: Table[1]->EmitRequired() == true 2005-05-14 20:26:23.100 DVB#0 Successfully tuned to channel 21. 2005-05-14 20:26:23.111 New DB scheduler connection Dish 3700 is defined, but isn't attached to a cardinput. 2005-05-14 20:26:23.676 JobQueue::RecoverQueue: Checking for unfinished jobs to recover. 2005-05-14 20:26:23.679 mythbackend version: 0.18.20050409-1 www.mythtv.org 2005-05-14 20:26:23.704 Enabled verbose msgs :all 2005-05-14 20:26:23.710 New DB connection, total: 4 2005-05-14 20:26:23.718 JobQueue::GetJobsInQueue: findJobs search bitmask 4, fou nd 0 total jobs 2005-05-14 20:26:25.719 Reschedule requested for id -1.
