DVBLink Version 2.1 Available

The DVBLink software allows your tuner cards to become network aware, allowing you for example to install the tuner cards into WHS and enabling you to watch TV in the lounge on Windows Media center which is accessing those tuners.

The DVBLink software has been updated with new features and fixes.

The major change in version 2.1 is that you can now have simultaneous playback of the same channel on multiple clients instead of just on one.

DVBLink TVSource

  • Added diseqc support for AnySee satellite tuners
  • Fixed CI control for TT3650 tuners (both CT and S)
  • Added diseqc support for TBS 6950 and TBS 6980 tuners
  • Added "Retry tuning on no signal lock" feature
  • Made "Stop streaming on Idle" optional. This has caused some tuners to report "0 services found" during scan
  • Added WinTVCI support
  • Increased size of decoding buffer when working with ffdecsa.dll. This brings performance improvement of almost 50% (depending on CPU).
  • Added new cable transponder listings and updated several existing (both sat and cable)
  • UI localization in English, German, Danish, Spanish, Ukrainian, Russian and French
  • User manuals in English, German, Danish, Spanish, Dutch, Russian and French

DVBLink Server Network Pack

  • Added simultaneous playback of the same channel on multiple clients
  • Added generation of "Tuner busy" stream when there are no tuners available
  • Improved channel change speed on WD TV Live (HD media player) when it is used as a upnp client of DVBLink Server. The channel change time has gone from 30-45 seconds to 12-18 seconds.
  • UI localization in English, German, Danish, Spanish, Ukrainian, Russian and French
  • User manuals in English, German, Danish, Spanish, Dutch, Russian and French

If you are upgrading from a previously installed version use the enclosed bat files within the download package. Upgrade the server first, followed by upgrade of source(s) and network pack/client(s). You will also need to enter DVBLink Server host name/IP address again on the client computer after upgrade.

You can grab the latest version from here.
