CI+ Module for DVB-T2 H.265 Decoding: Compatible with Older DVB-T TVs & Freenet TV Modules

If it is KDL50WF660 BAEP it has DVB-T2 HEVC, if other model need to check more carefully, other versions had heads ONLY DVB-T HEVC.

I reheat the chop, is there a CI or CI + card that extends the TV to receive dvb-t2?

Still not.

It will never be the same. It is not at all profitable to produce this type of tuner cards for CI modules.

And in this situation, am I doomed to a decoder, or is there any chance that the problem can be solved by, for example, configuring the TV?

I'm reheating the topic a bit, but maybe it will help you if it's still up to date, I found a video of a guest replacing the head in Soniak, but the last action he does may be helpful for you, i.e. he enters the service menu and switches to DVBT-2.

Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yK6fsGsIgpc

The only problem is that it will only work in Android models, in others, apart from the fact that the replaced head will work, there will be no image anyway because there is no HEVC support.

Hello. I am refreshing the post if these modules work. https://cardsplitter.pl/modul-conax-neotion-dvb-t-mpeg4-p-534.html

NO. This is an outdated MPEG4 to even more outdated MPEG2 converter module. Today you need a module with a HEVC to MPEG4 or HEVC to MPEG2 converter. There are no such modules and probably never will be, because introducing such a module to the market would be extremely unprofitable for producers and customers.

Well, actually it is outdated and a bit, it was used for TVs imported mainly from the UK where there is MPEG-2.

Modules from DVB-T MPEG-4 to DVB-T2 HEVC simply do not exist and never will, it is not even possible to do so.
The TV must have the head replaced with the DVB-T2 standard and support HEVC or, as I wrote, at least have the Android system with AVC (H.264) to transcode HEVC.

Good morning,
This topic is already a bit old and nothing could be worked out with the CI card, but I got from a certain service such a message, it is about my 2014 Panasonic, about which I wrote earlier:
"Hello,
the only possibility is to convert it to Germany (other software) - 300 zł cost, it can not be done from the USB level, etc. You need to physically program the memory."
and such a response:
"You can set the Polish language, etc., come bonus applications for the German market, in general on the downside rather nothing happens.
you need to bring the board or TV to the service - everything is original from Panasonic without any "tricks".
I wanted to go with my Panasonic TV to this service, the price was not so exorbitant, because I was afraid to rummage myself to pull out the disc, but I no longer got an answer and gave up, because it surprised me a little that you can not drive yourself, I bought a WIWA mini decoder under HDMI, such a kind of solution without rummaging in the TV.
Maybe the gentlemen who are familiar with the subject of programming the memory physically, add something on this subject from themselves, whether it is feasible to do and what is needed for this?

There is no such thing as a CI+ module that receives DVB-T2.
The head unit in the TV is responsible for receiving the signal in DVB-T2 modulation. In most TVs of those years, the head is soldered permanently into the motherboard, making it virtually impossible to replace if, for example, versions with a satellite tuner supported DVB-T2. Only some Samsung, LG, Panasonic TVs from the transition period had software-locked DVB-T2 support, making it necessary to change the region to Germany or change options in the service menu. Well, and Sony in the WE, WF, WG series have the option of replacing the tuner.
The only thing CI+ modules could do is decode HEVC streams. On the other hand, there are so few DVB-T2/MPEG-4 TVs from the transition period that it would not be worthwhile to introduce production of CI+ modules.

Good morning.

To BANANANvanDYK, what and where in the service menu does the Panasonic switch have any chance that HEVC will work?

I mean that the sound on my Panasonic TV on the channel where it is HEVC Viera TX-47AS750E is not working. I switched it to Germany and the Czech Republic with no result. Maybe something needs to be switched in the service menu as you mentioned?

Do you physically program the memory? If so, how and with what? Do you have any knowledge of this topic?

Greetings, Tomip77

But you don't have any chance to change to HEVC because it just isn't there and won't be in this model. HEVC support is completely unrelated to the head unit and head settings.

The TV receives DVB-T2 with no problem but it just doesn't have the required codec to watch the program.

Good day,
Are you able to confirm what I wrote back to the service to which I wrote, that you need to program the memory physically, that is how?
"Hello,
the only possibility is to convert it to Germany (other software) - 300 zł cost, you cannot do it from the USB level, etc. You need to physically program the memory."
and such a response:
"You can set the Polish language, etc., come bonus applications for the German market, in general on the downside rather nothing happens.
you need to bring the board or TV to the service - everything is original from Panasonic without any "tricks".
I mean that I found a 2014 model Panasonic with Hevc another model with 4 cores my has 2 cores descriptions in earlier posts,
so the question is whether it is possible to upload other software or not, programming the so-called memory physically as written by this service.?

What the service does is his secret.

I bet he is replacing the board from a similar model with HEVC support probably not from the Polish market, adding HEVC support is rather not just adding kodak especially as you noticed the number of processor cores changes.

Changing the software won't help because you can't even do it without disassembling the TV and hardware, well it's also obvious that you have a chip that needs to be replaced and a programmer to upload. It's a shame to rework at all.

Be aware that some companies quote only the cost of replacing the part/element/module without including shipping costs, labor costs, cleaning costs, etc. I have already once let myself be done and from the price of 200 zł for the replacement of the motherboard in the TV came out more than 500 zł in the sunie because they counted at the end ; the cost of cleaning, the cost of disassembly and assembling, the cost of labor hours and the cost of testing and what's better at the very end they added VAT . Of course, I did not count the shipping because it had to be special and courier at the expense of as you know the sender and the recipient on return. .

Good morning.
Thanks to tomaszlonski for the answer. I give a plus.
This would explain why they did not write back as I wanted to personally take my TV to their place because I did not want to open it myself.
Neagle silenced all my inquiries to them, that's why I decided not to disassemble the TV and send the board. I bought a set-top box for 100zł Wiwe Hevc265 mini under Hdmi and the TV works. It is no longer the same, but at least on the remote control from Wiwa I was able to program 4 buttons from the old remote control and it is such a fairly solution.
As you write, I may have to some extent saved my TV from deterioration and saved cash, although I can't stomach that you can't upload the software itself with HEVC via USB, but for such software to be compatible someone from the electrode with good knowledge on the subject would have to work it out and provide instructions on how to do it, as they have proven on this forum that movies from disk recorded on TV can be viewed not only on the TV where it was recorded, there is a solution to this on one of the forums and it works great, I know because I used it and you can do what you want with a movie from the disk, a description somewhere in my earlier posts. Anyway, the topic I will continue to follow, maybe someone will come up with something on this subject someday.

And something has come to my ears that they are supposed to change the broadcast format again in a while.

In the terrestrial ? I think you're making something up because it will be a long time before it enters the tests at all in Poland DVB-I or DVB-NIP.

@tomip77 is not possible as just change to the appropriate chips on the board, there is no such thing as HEVEC software for old models. Without HEVC hardware decoding, no hardware will not decode the picture even on a computer.

That's just what I've heard, also I couldn't find information on when it would take place.

You may have heard about the change in broadcast standard of mux-3 to dvb-T2/HEVC, which is still broadcasting in dvb-T/AVC. This is likely to happen at the end of November this year .

That may have been the point.
