Right from the beginning, in trying to get this system work we have struggled to get our 5 DVB encoders to give us anything positive. Once powered up they attempt to load their firmwire from the divicom control compputer via a network and patchbay.
After POST (Power-on self-test) they get stuck in a loop trying to load this boot file to its DRAM.
At first we though that this was due to a networking error, and thus we traced all the routes the cables take from the encoders and added this to our system diagram.
However when we viewed the deamon boot logs on the Divicom control computer and comparing them to the MAC/IP numbers of the encoders, we could see that all the encoders could be detected on the network.
However they where all reporting "missing boot files"
From this we now think that the problem could be at the server end, specificatly one of the boot services "BGTFPT.exe" (background trivial file transfer protocol) not starting when the computer boots.
This protocol is what the system uses to the transfer the boot file from the server to the encoders.
We could possibly fix this by reinstalling the system or trying to reconfigure the service in question.
