Plugin for TerraTec Cinergy Piranha (DTT, DAB, T-DMB, DVB-T)

Ken4000 · April 10th, 2008, 05:38 AM

Hi there
I'm it-engineer and i have just bought this device (http://www.terratec.net/en/products/...anha_1668.html).
I will (try to) develop a plugin for this. Though I don't have the SDK for the device. But it comes with a BDA driver and some software I will try to analyse.

I haven't been working with BDA drivers ever, so if you know some about how to get info and work with the driver, I will be happy to hear from you :-)

Best regards Kenneth

A little update
--------------
I have found this open software that uses BDA drivers like Windows Media Center. I will try this software and if it works great with all functions I will try making a plugin from that software to Centrafuse.
If any have a better idea, then please share it :-)

Best regards Kenneth

I have some start problems. The device I recieved was defect, so I will wait with this project till I get another device ;-)

But I think I can use the program that comes with device. There are parameters for everything and then I only need to "fit" the Display window in Centrafuse ;-)
I will give it a try when I recieve the new device ;-)

Best regards Kenneth

Will that little aerial really work for digital TV? I thught you needed a decent UHF aerial to get digital tv?

Hi
Yes it will work...I have seen it work at youtube.
I don´t think you should have a UHF aerial but a DVB-T aerial to recieve digital tv.
