    Narrator voice on Virgin channels

    hi all. ever since i've updated my software online,I keep getting the narrators voice on most of the hd channels. It was fine before that and i've not changed any settings. I have 2 boxes a vu solo se and a xtrend 10000, they are both having the same issues. I have tried the audio button on my remote but there is only 1 option there NAR. it wont let mechange the NAR option. Any ideas please?

    The AC3 audio usually does not have the narration, do you have that setup properly.

    I have the same problem lincsat, not only narration on movies but sound gone completely on some sshd channels and eurosport 1 and 2 HD so something has changed at VM's end i think

    Its an issue for everyone and nobody seems to know the cause of this either manually edit the PID,s as posted above or just use the SD version of the effected channels till a better solution is found thats all im doing.

    As far as I know..i never had the problem until today. I've set the language to English but I'm getting the narrator on the movie channels.

    No good by looks of it :-( , VM must be sending a new audio stream that 3rd party boxes dont seem to be able to recognize, hopefully image creators can find a quick fix or more than likely an image upgrade but i aint holding my breath.

    So you don't expect a quick fix?


    Streaming to VLC and Kodi on a pc appears to work ok (another image forum).

    "but I aint holding my breath" usual means "I don't expect something to happen anytime soon".

    You can fix this by altering the lamedb with an editor like e-channelizer. You need to manually set the AC3 Audio PID and the Video PID then disable the automatic updating. On Sky News HD for example, Video PID is 309 and AC3 Audio PID is 331.

    Looks like VM have altered the stream information so the Enigma boxes can't read it properly

    I’ve tried this but still no sound? Could you post a screenshot from e-channelizer please?

    Not right now as working from an old and slow lappy. You do need to set the 1st 3 flags to on to stop your changes being overwritten



    Edit: I think I've managed it
