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

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.

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

How do you know what PID,s to use for each affected channel :confused:

You can read the Video PID from the Information - service, (Video is usually 109, 209, 309, 409 on the HD channels), The AC3 audio is usually x31, with the x being the 1st figure of the Video PID.

As things stand, you need to help yourself a little, it's not all done for you.

That shows your audio PID as 0 - on that channel it needs to be 131 (as the video is 109) and set to AC3

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.

Vm is area dependant so thats unlikely to work unless you find someone on the same netid as you.

Has anyone else noticed a lot of there pids are blank in e-chanelizer, anyway here is what i have done with the ones showing pids

Switched off abm schedule
updated to latest e-chanelizer version
pids i can see i have changed audio to 131 for 109 video,checked ac3 and clicked top 3 flags,saved and written to box, rebooted box
Read back list to check info has taken which it has but still no sound
Weird thing is i put the box on normal standy last night and this morning i took it off normal standby and sky sports main event hd is fine

Eurosport and the rest are all still without sound

Baffling

I,m not sure about the reverting back to NAR audio but what i can confirm is that i have issues myself with writing ac3 which other members apparantly have no issues with.

This is something i will have a real play with today however

Can confirm by altering the lamedb writing ac3 and (3 flags checked) fixed issues yesterday, but today in the morning having the same issues all setting reverted back to the NAR.Again some channels no sound some with bloody audio description :mad:.

If you have ABM to auto run it will revert back once abm has run. You need to disable this.

looking at whats being posted up seems like random channels that people are getting working or is it at the present time when checked the program that is on is not AD supported anyway
all my hd channels still have it apart from cinema Christmas and fox hd has no sound at all
i have noticed that if the program is on any said HD channel and is not supported by AD its fine you can check this on the info by pressing ok twice

but on a side note my ITV HD if fine regardless what program is on even if it supports AD

Easiest way to work around this issue is as follows:

1) Via webinterface stream HD channel using VLC.
2) Whilst streaming in VLC, go to Tools > Codec Information. Set the reported Audio and Video PID using E-Channelizer as already explained in this thread. Some channels may not even play any audio on PC and VLC, but thats not an issue. All we need is the Audio and Video PID.

Takes all of about an hour or so to do all the VM HD channels, theres only 70 odd channels.

Finally make sure abm scheduled scan is turned off otherwise your changes will be over-written overnight.

Ensure you use VLC for correct PID's. Audio PID's shown in service information in e2 box are wrong to set as AC3. You must use the Audio PIDs found via VLC.

i have just tried this out and on fox hd has no sound or any sound option in audio button on box.
after doing the above the sound started on box briefly then screen goes blank.
but on checking the audio on the box there is now a ac3 option little bit stumped.

from another site

16 new services have been added to the SDT according to recent scan data, with vague service names such as Test V1. All parked in the double digit graveyard section of the EPG.

At the time of the scan, none of these had been added to the NIT in ex-Telewest / ex C&W regions. They were all marked as hidden, and flagged as "Entertainment". So, something is happening, no real clues as to what it might be...

SID 4403 Test V1 (one of the 16 new services added to the SDT) has now been added to NIT of 4 VM internal networks usually associated with testing. It moved from EPG slot 17 to channel 947 and the hidden flag has been removed. 947 is in the radio section of the EPG, but Test V1 is currently flagged in the entertainment category, not the radio category. Hmmm...

I think this is a sly job on virmin first hit the HD channels then before you know it there gone

Sly use (nds) now cisco for their smartcard security and VM use NAGRA (kudelski) for theirs so different platform and organisations but you are correct as HD channels will be affected firstly..i have a funny feeling the SD format will remain for some time until older generation boxes have been swapped out.

This will take some time as not everyone will upgrade from their old samsung boxes for instance which to my research require smartcards.

Although inhome service calls from VM for the likes of picture breakup or BB issues etc will result in old equipment being replaced at the same time as the service call by the engineer.

Not sure what that would be,, you could try uninstalling abm, reboot, re-install latest abm , reboot,update config and try again.

I stlll have a few HD channels with no sound like sky news hd,scifi horrer but it certainly fixed most as i used an old un-edited list b4 i ran abm so its work in progress and thanks to abm guys:-)

As i say your abm probably just needs updated via telnet or via plugin server as i explained in post 88

I'm running an older version of vix as my receiver has recently been discontinued for support so I can't update abm via the menu as it errors as not latest version.
Is there any way I can update abm manually?

Here's a script that came from a plugin that I found. Script removed from the plugin as was doing some unnecessary stuff.

Script has been edited to stop a few channels being flagged with AC3 audio as they have black screen in certain areas.

If you need to edit the script use Notepad++ editor.

To edit open with Notepad++, you'll see the channels that have been blocked from updating start with a '#'.

To run the script do exactly as follows:

1) Blue button > ViX > Script Runner > Press Exit once. This will create the folder usr/scripts on your receiver.
2) FTP the the script to usr/scripts.
3) Open Script runner > Press OK to select the script > Press Green to run the script.
4) Script will run and restart the GUI.

Note you will need to re-run every time AutobouquetsMaker is run. I'd suggest turn off AutobouqetsMaker scheduled scanning. Manually run ABM when you need to and re-run the script.

Thats it. Not my work, just edited the script to stop some unnecessary stuff.

This a working workaround solution until something better is released.

Script now removed as no longer needed as work around implements into latest AutobouquetsMaker.

I have a problem.
The script should work bit my receiver loses the abm bouquets on reboot.
It's done this for a while now (nothing to do with the script)

So if I apply the script and reboot I'd be in a position where I'd have no bouquets and have to do the cycle again.

Any ideas?

I can confirm the updated ABM works in 00008 on the latest OpenVix. The script is a different solution but does pretty much the same thing, you do NOT need to use both. I have also noticed that not all channels are included in the ABM file I tried, about half a dozen are missing including SyFy, Nat Geo Wild and ITV1/2/3/Be HD channels

I'm not sure if this is a related issue but I suspect it might be. I've also been having the issue with Audio Description and have fixed it by deleting and re-scanning ABM as suggested elsewhere in this forum.

During this I've noticed that I no longer have Dolby Digital. There are no settings listed anywhere in the menus for Dolby or Digital Downmix. I get no sound on Dolby Channels unless I select AC3 Downmix (Which gives me stereo).

Is this related? And ideas on how to get my surround sound back? I have tried reflashing from USB and then restoring my backed up settings, no change.

What version of ViX are you on now? To check on the Solo 2’s press Menu > Info > About. If you are on 4.2.xxx you can simply do a backup of the settings in Backup Manager, then you can use Image Manager to download & install 5.0.032. Would be a 10 min job max to restore settings & plugins from 4.2 if that is what you were on.

Ye very easy via XXX as you say but questions regarding cams can slip cant they, but when rules are rules and rules are bent what happens.

How do you police 4d. smartscards. i have a smartscard

Hi Guys, I have been reading various posts regarding changing pid's through e-channelizer. I have selected various channels and all my pids seem to have a value set at "0". Can anybody shed any light on this??? I am using Vix with Mgcamd.
TIA

Guys, can we all please remember that the Vix team provide all this time and support for free. They are not responsible for any changes that providers implement to stop illegal viewing of pay tv and so respect needs to be given!! They go above and beyond what Vix is all about and I think some should realise this.

Rather than change them all manually just update and run ABM, you will also need to change from MGcamd to OScam (do not ask here how to do that).

Please refrain from any more softcam talk.

Thanks bud but I cant be arsed doing all that, They obviously dont need to be set or they wouldnt all be on "0". I was going to have a mess about in a attempt to get the Audio sorted but I can live with it as it is.

You can get the values by going on each effected channel then menu> information> service

If the video pid is 109 then the audio would be 131. If the video pid is 209 then audio would be 231 and so on.

That’s because you need to manually change it to 131 or if your using abm update config files, run scan and it will change for you.

Thank you, Ive never been in there before.....lol. Ive just done it on Channel 4HD and its exactly what you have said. So is there a value I can change to to get Audio on ch4 HD as a experiment, If that works I'll go through all the others?
UPDATE: Ive just changed the values and I now have the option to change to NAR which I have done and now got Audio albeit its going to have AD if broadcasted.

Is this related no sound on certain channels?

Yes of course it is using these hacks is forcing old cams to be obsolete, I know we cant talk to much about it but it needs pointing out.

Before the audio issues it was fine. Once using ABM update config files the effected channels wont work without oscam all other channels are fine.

Sorry for discussing this in here

Hats of to all the people involved with ABM and doing the magic they have so a thank you from here.

i little input regarding recordings as not sure if other are aware as dont see any talk about it


have all channels working as they should,
openvix 5 00 032
updated ABM con fig and re scan this evening
there was an ABM update since yesterday so thats been picked up today

manual update of a few pids after todays scan.
cinema Disney hd
super hero hd
sky arts hd
neo geo wild hd
bt espn hd

but recordings are an issue
if the recording is on a ABM fixed channel then i cant watch another ABM fixed channel at the same time sd work and so do the 1's i fixed.
if its a channel i have updated manually i can watch it along with any others i have fixed at the same time and sd but again not ABM fixed channels.

channel change speed if its a fixed one by ABM it usually clears just as the info page goes 4/5 secs TBH the delay time is not an issue and i know how to speed it up but this causes more issues so reverted back.


has anyone got any input on the recordings? and what have they seen with theirs.

I had reported the recording problem to a dev already. Best I can suggest for now is to look at the latest provider xml and hash out the channels that you do not want to be altered, eg channels that seldom have narration, like all Sky sports HD except main event, all BT Sports, Sky Arts and a few others.

You should find that you can record an altered channel and watch a non-altered channel and vice versa

same here m8, been going round in circles for the past 2 days when I realised I could not record / watch 2 hd channels-----

nice summary of which is working and not.cheers ( same as me)

i keep restoring my backup from the 13/11 before ABM update and scan and can record/watch all HD channels but of course NAR is still present( not - manually fixed PID'S so i can still record)


hope we find a solution

i done the easy route and removed all hd channels pretty simple
copied from another forum i put it up on


guys if i was you TBH i would just remove all HD channels if you are not confident messing with setting ect
its a quick and easy way to remove them yes its only sd but at least there are no recording issues and if's and buts about channels working

as people seem to be getting confused with all the options and differences
from builds to c.....

let the ABM guys ect crack on i am sure give it time a good and stable fix will be in place it has been less than a week since and progress has been spot on (wish i was as clever as theses guys)

save it as cable_uk_virgin_CustomMix.xml

then

FTP in your to \usr\lib\enigma2\python\Plugins\SystemPlugins\Auto BouquetsMaker\custom and put the above file in there now back to receiver and run ABM scan and restart once scan is done

also change channel swap to no in ABM / providers as well in (i didnt need to do this)

any auto/timers you have set on HD channels you will need redo to SD ones

i have done this to a bedroom box on openvix using m..... as its what i use so very little change to my setup in there and wont take any longer than a few mins to do

hope this helps some of you

No one is driving themselves crazy, I think this issue is bigger than a simple fix, people are just trying to work out if they need to start doing things manually and using e-channaliser to sort all these problems out or whether a software update would just fix the problem.

But yh i agree we just have to be patient, i do not understand why softcam talk is being mentioned here, the issue is sound and narrator thing. I did not think picture was an issue here

Oh

See i do not use ABM with my cable channels, i just scanned and organised them the way i liked it and have had it like that for around a year now. I do not know if that makes a difference. But the issue with this thread was sound and the voice narrator. SOFTCAM talk should not be mentioned.
