Pluto problems on DATV tx with the Portsdown

[m0lcr]

I have two plutos both exhibiting the same issue with the latest version of Portsdown.
Basically Band Viewer works fine, and signal generator works too, but when trying to tx video not a squeak no matter what settings are used.
Has anyone seen anything like this or recommend an approach to sorting it out.
Many thanks in advance

Can you confirm that you are running the appropriate software in the Pluto.

Has it ever worked or is this a new problem?
Other versions whilst not supported by PD4 do sometimes do 'something'.
There is a menu in PD4 to check Pluto firmware and report back what it finds.
Good luck

Hi,

As it says on the tin, only this version works for Portsdown 4.

The latest Portsdown 4 works fine here with no problems.

Thanks for the links to the wiki info on the Evariste firmware etc.
I’ll look into it when I visit the guys having the issue.
Many thanks

Yes, checked the Portsdown version and it is updated to PD4
Many thanks for the suggestion.
