Transponder lists for Transedit.

[Huevos]

Anyone interested in trying these out before I release them. Main feature is the transponders have a proper description.

Morning 'H'.....hope all is well with yourself.

Good work thanks. Not much time of late but just running your .ini of 28.2ºE using DVB Dream v2.8 with DVBSky USB on this occasion
......seems a treat.

Be safe.

Thanks LP,

Can you check an S2 transponder loads right in that program please. Say 10847V. Check it lists as 8PSK.

Quick run on another laptop with 47.5ºW with DVB Dream 2.8.1 and TBS USB.
.....again, thanks.

Sorry for rush 'H'.......off to Notary.................thanks.........results show:-

Hmm. Shows QPSK in that grab. Maybe your program doesn't understand Transedit flags.

DVB Dream plus and minus at times....................looks fine with SmartDVB.......well done, cracking job 'H'.

Auto FEC


'auto fec'.....unchecked

Thanks LP. I guess the INIs for one program aren't 100% compatible with the others.

Alas, they don't. The modulation parameters of Transedit include Pilot and Roll Off for DVB-S2. Here you see the difference for 23.5E, 11739V.

BF, the default "should" scan that fine. Problem is there is no complete list with pilot and roll-off included. Only way to get that info is by scanning the SI tables. Kind of chicken and egg. Need the correct data to scan the transponder. Can't scan the transponder without the data. Fortunately that is not true. Just takes a little longer to lock using the defaults.

Anyway data is from Lyngsat but neither pilot nor roll-off is listed on that site, nor any other by the look of it. Any idea where to download that?

This is only partly true. The actual parameters are transmitted in the BBHEADER. The Satellite Delivery System descriptor in the NIT shows the roll-off factor but not pilot. Some older DVB-S2 cards needed a correct pilot setting. Normally it's done automatically by the demodulator.

If it is not listed in the NIT and not listed in transponder lists how is anybody supposed to know the correct setting to enter in the ini file. What I did was pilot on for S2 transponders and 0.35 roll-off. Without a complete source of transponder data I can't see what else can be done.
