Window size and position not saved here. Windows 10 with current updates. AMD processor. I am assuming there's no command line stuff needed, it should "just work"?

Happy to provide whatever may be of assistance. Thanks, otherwise 100% solid.
Yes, it will just work. But it would seem that my assumption that screen coordinates don't go into negative is the issue. I've had similar complaints. Will be fixed in the next version :)

Please don't call my observation a complaint :) To complain given the price and the generosity you show with your work would be very bad form. Call it an observation Tom <LOL> Thanks, I will await the forthcoming release and report back.

Not sure what the timestamp error is, but I have seen it before, so I've attached a screen shot. The video and audio sound perfect despite this.

I've seen this too. If you leave it long enough it seems to crash the minituner.

I've found that Open Tuner crashes when receiving DVB-S from the BATC DTX-1 as used in GB3EY.

It's OK on DVB-S or DVB-S2 from the Porstsdown, although the D report doesn't work in DVB-S.

Hi Tom
great work on Open Tuner. Enjoying testing

I use a MiniTiouner Pro V2
Not sure if supported
The Lnb voltage does not switch from A to B has anyone else seen this?

I can confirm it switches voltage and ports on MiniTiouner software

Thanks Terry G1LPS

Hi
Same here. It does not switch between 13 and 18V but start on 18V so I am lucky.
I like to use this piece of software.
Have fun

Hi Alain
Thanks for confirming same here starts with 18v on port A. But no switching to B or 13/18v
I have a 3.4ghz lnb on port B normally so unable to see gb3km repeater with open tuner.
I also like this software quick to lock

Hello,
I installed OT on an older Wi10 machine and a fast Win11 machine.
Everything runs great on the old computer. The OT decode my homemade signal.

With the new computer the OT starts, the tuner is recognized etc.
As soon as a signal is detected, the program breaks off completely. Both windows are closed without an error message.

As a precaution, I uninstalled the old VLC version and installed the new 32bit version. Unfortunately the same result.

@ Tom: Great cinema. Very great work from you.
Is there perhaps a version in the future where put the video to an HDMI output?
