|
CSCdr02168 |
The feature to rename Output Streams does not work properly. |
|
CSCdr02171 |
Only two audio PIDs per program can be played at this time. |
|
CSCdp97260 |
During configuration changes, not all internal resources (SPIDs) are released. Over time, this causes the system to run out of those resources. The system has to be reset to resolve this problem. |
|
CSCdr02611 |
PSI task hangs when encountering system errors such as failure to allocate memory, or failure to disable an Input PID. |
|
CSCdr08480 |
Descriptors are not being parsed correctly. |
|
CSCdr28341 |
Output PSI only generates PMTs and ignores tables of other types. |
|
CSCdr45575 |
Multiple PMT messages in the same PID are not supported. |
|
CSCdr48450 |
When IRT has no RF source, the Cisco 6920 does not display collected PSI data. |
|

The DSP resets when any of the video PIDs is scrambled, but the associated audio PID is not. |
|
CSCdr30639 |
DVB-reserved PIDs are used with automatic PID remapping. |
|
CSCdr30654 |
The default PSI rate is too low. The default value has been changed to 500 msec. |
|
CSCdr32555 |
If an attempt is made to upload an erased configuration file to the host PC, the uploaded file grows until the disk space is exhausted. |
|
CSCdr34331 |
TS buffer overflow with multiple audio/teletxt PassThru PIDs. |
|
CSCdr50016 |
|
|
CSCdr50205 |
When the PAT table is longer than 183 bytes, the PUSI bit in the output transport packet is incorrectly set when there is no beginning of section on the packet. |
|
CSCdr60270 |
Using the set top box, when selecting 7 video programs and 45 DMX audio channels, audio channels cannot be heard. |
|
CSCdr62215 |
Invalid descriptors were observed in the PMTs of the outgoing PSI data when Private Table Collection was enabled. |
|
CSCdr59284 |
Audio associated with video drops after a period of operation. |
|
CSCdr65804 |
Memory leak occurs when repeatedly loading EditMaps and Program Select. |
