All TV channels missing, but radio is fine - any ideas?

@Apogee
I guess the G10B has the same problems like the PZ81B/LZD81B series.
Only the G10L without freesat for the irish market got the right DVB compliant behavior.

Apogee

Yes, only the G10L confirmed as OK so far, although I have a hunch that the G10B might be OK too - still waiting for someone to report back.

Solutions for the PZ81Bs:
1) Continue uploading the channel paramters by USB and hope and pray RTÉNL don't change the PIDs.
2) Get Panasonic to issue a channel editor
3) Get Panasonic to fix the firmware and make it DVB compliant like the G10
4) Get Panasonic to replace your PZ81 with a G10

Thanks Apogee,

I feel even the most technical of us won't be able to keep up with the changes RTE may make, be it locations of transmitters, service type etc. it would still snooker so many LZD/PZ owners.

I don't think Point 2 is really feasible...not all PZ81/LZD81 owners will be technically proficient to do this even though it would make sense to offer some sort of solution.

Point 3 - This is what everyone wants - The definitive solution.

Point 4 - Not all of us will be successful but if you don't ask....etc.

I am lost, I have a z81 and my dtt is working fine altogether, channels coming up all clear?

Only 3 & 4 are viable.

1 & 2 are useless.

ssshush, I rang the TV retailer today and also Panasonic in the UK.

TV retailer says until RTE confirm what they are doing re: transmission type, then they can't get onto Panasonic and press for them to make a firmware/software adjustment.

For an alternative option the retailer will perhaps consider a trade-in - not a swop! Didn't get down to details about that.

Panasonic just washed their hands of the problem telling me to complain to the Retailer for selling me a TV that doesn't do what I they told me it could do (work in the republic). I know it works with RTE, its just a bloody DVB settings change!

Panasonic do however say the following TV's should work G10L, V10L and G15L. Sure, they were short of giving me phone numbers of where to buy one!

Hi Lads,
Mullaghanish file attached for anyone, thanks to Derek for letting me know how to do this.

netwhizkid

Threw up an new aerial today with new masthead amp and got all the channels in with spectacular quality. My Panny handled them lovely but does not appear to support the MHEG5 Interactive "new" Aertel and in my very rushed and limited test of it the EPG also appears to be Now and Next but if I change country in setup this should change I think. It handles "old" Aertel perfectly and loads it very fast. Well impressed with it and I must now mount the Aerial properly and get a new powersupply for the mast head amp as the one I got today had only 2 output feeds when I need 5. All going well with DTT and Mullaghanish on my side anyway.

For future reference:

The way to backup the files:
1. Down load a copy of keithoh file (Attachment 80690) (Mt. Leinster TH46PZ81B).
2. Delete the hotel_setup folder and keep the hotel.pwd
3. Format a SD card, put the hotel.pwd on the SD card.
4. Put the SD card into the TV.
5. TV says Data copy (Hotel) Input password
6. Enter 4850
7. Data is backed up

To restore re-enter card and enter 4851

If anyone in the Cork / Kerry area has a PZ81B and hasn't lost the DTT channels, can you post the data for Spur Hill or Mullaghanish.

You should tell the panasonic staff to check the last page of the owners manual and mention the declaration of conformity to the dvb standards.
Marketing blurb doesn't count. The written word is that was count.

Noooo - got all excited for a sec. If anyone else has Cairn Hill - i'd be very grateful if you would go to the trouble of saving and uploading the files.

TheDriver

the opposite could occur of course, that RTE might change again their settings unless we have other info on that.
I am confused though, how come the z81 can pick up the channels if a rescan hasn't been done? It seems it can decode them IF it can find them which is the issue.

I have this on good authority:

The LZD81 and PZ81 TVs will NOT be updated to work with RTE test signals. Even if Panasonic did launch firmware to enable these TVs to be marketed in ROI (thus violating their licensing agreement with Freesat) then whos to say that RTE would not change their specification again 6 months down the line?

You are wasting your time trying to get a major company to change the specification of a product to work with a foreign system that hasnt even been finalised yet.

According to your logic of DVB conformity, any DVB box should be able to pick up RTE test signals!! Go to tesco, buy a £7 DVB box and try that with the RTE test signals, then moan to Technika or whatever the manufacturer is called that its not DVB compliant!!!

watty

Everyone is wasting their time until RTE publicly launches the Mux officially.


If RTE listened to *SOME* folks here they would be swapping to DVB-T2 and then even USB sticks won't work no matter what updated SW you get.

You should get your facts right.
A tesco box for 7 quid has no mpeg4 decoder on board.
The LZD81 and PZ81 series have an combined mpeg2/mpeg4 decoder on board and are able to handle an mpeg4 compressed video stream. The tuner has nothing to do with mpeg decoding.
The problem is the channel scan for dvb-t (freeview) at the panasonics is not willing to accept a simple setting in the data of the rte broadcast.
RTE didn't invent that setting. Its well defined in the dvb standards and Panasonic promised to follow the dvb standards. Ignoring one simple byte at the data stream means Panasonic declared false DVB conformity.

You find a peice of legislation that says every DVB box should decode MPEG 4 encoded video off air. Just because the TV can decode MPEG 4 via Freesat doesnt mean it has to be able to do it out of the box via the DVB-T side

The TVs will have been designed many moons ago, BEFORE RTE were using mpeg 4; indeed they were initially using MPEG 2 TEST SIGNALS

We're not talking about every box, we're talking about a Television which claims to be compliant with a standard, which actually does state it should work with these transmissions "out of the box". RTE haven't dabbled in MPEG2 in years, the Trial which ended last August wasn't theirs. The transmissions which RTE NL commenced have always been MPEG 4. The televisions mentioned worked perfectly with the MPEG 4 Video for over 6 months, in fact anyone who didn't rescan after the descriptor change, can still view the channels.

pinarout

the issue is this:

the tv makes no claims to work with dvb-T MPEG 4 transmissions. end of story

STB

DVB compliance are the key words here.

Receivers and IDTVs must meet certain standards (ie DVB standards)
We'll concentrate on these....

* ISO/IEC 13818-1 (aka "MPEG: Systems") "GENERIC CODING OF MOVING PICTURES AND ASSOCIATED AUDIO: SYSTEMS" ISO / Motion Picture Experts Group
* ETSI EN 300 468 "Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Specification for Service Information (SI) in DVB systems" ETSI / EBU (DVB group)
* "Digital Terrestrial Television: Requirements for Interoperability" Issue 4.0+ (aka "The D book") UK Digital Television Group
* ETSI TS 102 323 Technical Specification: "Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Carriage and signalling of TV-Anytime information in DVB transport streams" ETSI / EBU (DVB group)

ETSI EN 300 468 is the main one that Pani claim conformity with and it is the important one that dictates that the service types are defined. It is also the one causing the problems.

If all the service types were defined there would be no issue but they werent for the DVB-T tuner in this TV series - it would seem that only one was.

And by the way the same processor chip will decode both DVB-T and DVB-S. It is a freesat "HD" box, plays AVC-HD files. There is only one processor on board that decodes the mpeg4 transmissions and also plays back the AVC-HD content from a SD card. And the Pani series did receive the transmission when RTE broadcast initially in MPEG4 with the stream service type defined as "digital television service" . The reason it doesnt work now is because the rest of the service types were not defined in the firmware (ie the rest of the 8-bit fields specifying the type of the service being broadcast). Some might call it cutting corners.

Go back to your authority and tell em that.

Wrong story mate! The fact is the Panasonic TVs do work with MPEG-4 transmissions (already proved); the real issue is that they will not mark and store the channel because of a DVB-T information element defined in the DVB-T standard that Panasonic claim conformity to. It has nothing to do with working with MPEG4 or MPEG2.

You are clouding the issue because you obviously don't understand it.

SRB

Maybe he/she works for Panasonic, it's obvious they don't understand it either !

steveq

Well put, STB.

I have had a number of communications with Panasonic Customer Service on this point.

I have pointed out that they claim that the TV is compliant with the international DVB standards in the documentation. I quoted EN 300 468 specifically and even sent them the Service Types table.

They ignore that point and keep saying that the TV was only intended for the UK market and that they do not intend doing anything to rectify the situation.

TheDriver

maybe if the more knowledgeable could write a letter to Panasonic, post it up here and we can all copy and paste it into an email and send it to Panasonic so they get the idea that there are lots of people with this TV in Ireland and not happy?

STB

I suggest someone ask esti to contact panasonic given the brick wall responses received by posters here already.

Are you kiding.
Do you say there are different mpeg4 versions on the market? A good one via satellite and a bad one via DVB-T?
The complaint is not missing mpeg4 support. Mpeg4 decoding is working.
The complaint is missing support of service types which all are well defined in the dvb standards.
Once more the problem is the channel scan which is not willing to store the irish channels in the channel list and therefor there is nothing to select in channel list and guide after a scan.
The channel scan is ignoring a valid value in one byte of the non compressed service data and that is the breach of the declaration of conformity.

There is only one set of dvb standards for whole europe.
If Panasonic would follow the promised confirmity the TV would work for every dvb-t broadcast in europe.
DVB-T2 is a other story but dvb-t2 is not used in Ireland.

I emailed Panasonic on this issued and this is the response I get:

Thank you for your further mail and points raised. I apologise for the delay in the response to your e-mail but I have been required to investigate in more detail.

Having discussed your particular complaint with our management team for clarification and consideration of your points we would respond with the following comments.

You are correct with regards to the issues being related to the updates and change of service type but these are together with a number of additional trials and updates will continue to be presented until RTENL have confirmed the final standards and services.

RTE have made the decision to jump straight to the DVB-DTT standard which is different to that in the UK, the speed of change and the level of DVB standard differs from county to country. The UK being an earlier adopter to the standard is heavily due to the switch over route with the MPEG2 compression standard. RTE have chosen to go straight to the DTT MPEG4 compression which renders the UK Freeview compliant sets incompatible in the Republic of Ireland. We have no schedules or plans indicating a timescale for the UK to move to a DVB-DTT signal and will await the information for the UK broadcasters.

We are compliant with DVB standards and would refer you to the following site if you wish to reference the claims we make with regards to the general DVB standards.

www.etsi.org
www.dvb.org
www.digitag.org

DVB-DTT is the chosen standard for the Republic of Ireland as indicated on the digital television Ireland website link below.

http://www.digitaltelevision.ie/National+DTT/Useful+Information.htm

On this site you are advised as follows:-

DTT Receivers

A minimum specification for DTT receivers for the Irish Market has been finalised. This specification is available from the RTÉ website – http://www.rtenl.ie/

Receivers on the Irish market will use the MPEG 4 compression standard which is being used in Estonia, Denmark, France, Hungary, Lithuania, Norway, Portugal, Slovenia, New Zealand and South Africa. More details are available from http://www.dvb.org/. This is different to the MPEG 2 compression standard used in the UK. Retailers should note that televisions with MPEG 2 tuners only, will not pick up the Irish DTT service when it develops.

We would also refer you to the RTENL website for information with regards to the test transmission and DTT rollout the link shown below.

http://www.rtenl.ie/dtt.htm

You are advised on their site of the two following points:-

1. Under the title HOW DO I GET IT? ..
“Please note that, when launched, Irish DTT will use MPEG4 technology. The majority of UK "Freeview" boxes and iDTVs will not work.”
2. Under the heading “ DIGITAL ROLL OUT”
“Under no circumstances should the test transmissions be considered an operational service.”

The signal is still subject to change and it has been indicated by RTE this will not be finalised until mid to late 2009.

We have also referred to the which.co.uk website to check the advice and information you indicated was provided on this site to validate your purchase of this equipment.
You indicated that “the requirement to receive Freesat and the Irish DTT stations” we have verified this and no such information existed to indicate the ability to receive the “the Irish DTT stations” if you have details of which pages indicated this we will discuss this with the Which group.

We unfortunately are not licensed to sell the Freesat compliant equipment into the Republic of Ireland and therefore unable to supply a unit which would be compliant to receive Freesat and the Irish DTT stations.

We therefore have no solution for your issues with the DVB-DTT transmission issues you are experiencing and would refer you to our previous statements. If the users have purchased these units expressly for DTT functionality, and it was marketed to them by the retailer from whom they purchased the unit on this basis alone, we would suggest they contact these retailers to address their issues.

Of course, Panasonic is fully committed to supporting our products marketed specifically for the Republic of Ireland to ensure continued functionality, this will be dependant upon the final RTE defined format and timing of its implementation.
We appreciate that this response may cause some disappointment to our customers. However, our position is clear with regard to DTT compliant products in the Republic of Ireland.

Kind Regards

There's no such thing as the "DVB-DTT standard". The DVB-T standard is the same in every country - that's why it's called a standard. Do they still not understand the difference between signal modulation/channel coding etc and video compression?

There are 2 key strokes needed to add the value 0x16 (16 in hex) to the table of valid service types in the firmware of the pz81/lzd81 TV's and that is the whole fix.
Service type 0x16 is simply a valid value due to the dvb standards and ignoring channels with that service type is a breach of the dvb standards.
It looks like the panasonic staff is not able to understand such simple things.

You sound like you really know the ins and outs of this system and what needs to be done, maybe you could suggest this to Panasonic or indeed could you liaise with the poster who got the reply and put this to Panansonic?
Or is a hacked firmware possible?

maxg

The complaint should be about the channel search which is not willing to accept channels with service type 0x16 and don't store them in the channel list.
That is the theme and nothing else.
The question is will Panasonic add the missing byte via 2 key strokes to the table of valid service types in the firmware of the PZ81/LZD81 TV's and offer that firmware update.
Yes or no.

Btw misleading advertisement via faked DVB logos at the TV's and faked declarations of conformity is a crime.

Might be worth making the point to Panasonic that this isn't the usual complaint about UK TV's not working in Ireland, as these TV's already have MPEG4 decoders and were working with RTENL's MPEG4 DTT until a minor change was made in the broadcast.

You could take a few pictures or make a youtube video of the PZ81Bs with the Irish DTT channels displayed. Not that Panasonic "support" give a damn either way.

I've lost digital broadcasts on 2 different Sony's- a W and an U series. Message is 'no service defined'- its picking up the 9 channels ok though.

As an aside- analogue transmission strength from 3Rock has increased about 6 fold.

peadar99

Did a manual retune from Clermont Carn for Channel 53, and the 4 tv channels are back now. [on a Panasonic TX32-LZD81]

[EDIT:]

I saved down the channel list to an SD card just in case [not going to get caught like that again!], and then did a full scan to try and order the tv channels before the radio stations, which worked ok for me.
It did appear to have left out the 4 ROI TV channels when I looked at the guide, but they reappeared when I went to the channel number [800-803], and after that they were there ok.

So the 9 ROI channels are there now, in order, from 800-808 [i.e. 4 tv, 4 radio and 1 test card]

Happy days...

Just an update, a re-scan on Three Rock (CH54) now brings in only the radio stations, Kippure (CH61) still bringing in all 9 services however long that will last!
Just to add, no problems with a re-scan on a Samsung PS42B430, All services coming in loud and clear from both Three Rock and Kippure.
