Audio disapeared

Postby pavgod » Sat Aug 20, 2016 8:09 am

Audio disapeared. Worked perfect on all channels. Video is still OK.
Nothing was changed in system and configs. Tried all available decoders and filter - no way, no audio :(
Win7-64, TT1401, SmartDVB 0.4.0.12

did you look at your windows volume settings, to see if it's not zeroed out? Does this persist after reboots?

All looks quite usual in Command Files(x86) and in AppData/.../Settings. What I have to look exactly ?

Is it possible to reinstall SmartDVB over leaving old configs ?

yes it should be possible to upgrade retaining previous settings. But just to be sure your problem is not some "upgrade" related problem a clean install would be best in a test scenario (sometimes even clean OS installs are preferrable when problems are really persistent or obscure).

i meant the windows system volume settings, not the smartdvb internal volume settings. So look if your windows installation has 0 volume for the smartdvb application, NOT sdvb..

After all, I made the total reinstallation of SmartDVB (including card drivers), without any config changes and the system left untouched. All is ok now.
It may be reasonably easy solution, in case it will be possible to save ALL configs and restore them after reinstallation.

it might be possible but this is what happens (or should always happen) when you upgrade, all your configs and channels remain the same. A seperate save config to folder or something and later replace load from folder would be possible but you can also just create a script for this with something to do this or do it manually, just copy smartdvb folders if you only install sdvb in the same folder (second install option, not an appdata install this is a bit more tricky) you can just copy all settings which are just .ini files, don't forget to also backup smartdvb.db if you want to retain your satellites/diseqc settings etc also.

Sometimes I did it before, but still it was some handwork to do. From my point, it may be a kind of "export/import config settings", as it is done in most of traditional sat. receivers, I know.
