  • I am in North America, using the latest satdreamsgr with oscam works great! (not the new 8 in beta) I notice on these feeds from ABC:

    4120 H 30000 DVBS2 HEVC 4:2:2



    If I tune any of these in it makes the receiver very buggy and slow, and also will make all channels blank (black screen no pic just audio). Only way to get out is to unplug/replug or I can manage to reboot but sometimes it's so slow and buggy I have no choice... It took me a while to figure out what the problem was, so I just deleted all these channels and of course the receiver is fine.



    Funny thing is I can tune these in on a modified satdreamsgr image here in North America, and it does not lock up the receiver, so I can stream to my tablet and watch with vlc or mx player as the Edision cannot play these but I can send it to a player that can. (would be a nice feature to be able to load a plugin that would do a 5 second delay playback to watch 4:2:2 somewhat live, maybe it could record and play it back with 5 second delay through vlc or whatever, that would be really cool if it could be done, as no receivers can play these live and direct) Anyway any idea why this is happening, and any thoughts on if the new version 8 would have this issue as well? Thanks

  • I am using satdreamgr 8 now, works good but same problem, a small improvement where it does not make the receiver lag and I watched the ABC 4:2:2 feeds streaming to dreamdroid was working fine but then when I change the channel everything is blank just have audio. I have to restart to get the picture back again.

    Changed the title of the thread from “Black screen satdreamsgr” to “Black screen satdreamgr”.
  • I was wrong, it stll locks up the receiver, was watching abc through dream driod and when I was done the receiver was very buggy and super slow, managed to restart it. Anyone from satdreamgr team have any input on this? Any fixes coming, I took the latest updated on version 8 but still the same problem.

  • i was searching for any 4:2:2 feed to check if i have the same problem (so it is something in all 4:2:2 feeds) but no luck (and i can't receive cband ).



    except the SDG and the modified one, have you tried any other images? what is the result?

  • I have a modified image of satdreamgr 6, it's called tnap (the north american project) I can use this one on the feeds and it works fine. But the official satdreamgr 6 gives me problems so does 8.


    Oh would any image be able to be setup with like a somewhat live viewing of 4:2:2 with something like vlc or something playing back a recording of the live stream with like a 5 second delay or something, would the receiver have enough processing power? That would be really neat, would make 4:2:2 feeds pretty much live and direct without a 4:2:2 capable receiver.


    Oh and on satdreamgr 8, what do I have to change in the settings to make the time stay right, right now I think it's picking time off channels, I had the time okay with the older version but this one keeps getting messed up. Thanks

  • about the time... its picking time from channel + timezone .

    if the above is ok, and you still have problems, try plugin "systemtime" .


    about the 4:2:2 ... i still search for any feed, but for the moment nothing. than i can see if there is this problem in all 4:2:2 channels, or if there is something special in c-band, or in the channels that you refer. if the first happens, we can search for the problem.


    i asked if you have used any other images, except satdreamgr (as openatv, openhdf etc...) to see if there is sdg problem or just a modify from n.a team...


    about the playback ... i do not know any image that can do it (in this receiver) ,i think it is possible, but ...it needs something...

  • No have not tried another but my friend has openvix and he never mentioned the problem, I'll message him to confirm.


    Oh wow if you guys can figure out a way to do semi live playback your image would be very popular in North America I know that for sure. I'm sure others around the world would be happy with it as well.

  • Ok my buddy wont be by his dish for a while but he said openvix gets all messed up as well on those channels. Hmm I wonder what the guys that did TNAP mod changed to not cause these issues?
