[linux-dvb] serious dvb-s tuning problem

[Ruben Jenster <ruben@hotheads.de>]

Hello,

I have a serious tuning problem.

I have a Siemens DVB-s Card rev. 1.3. 

I'm not able to tune to any other channel  on Astra 19.2E that lies on another 
transponder then the following 

horizontal: 
ARD / arte / Bay. Fern / BR-alpha / hessen fernsehen / Phoenix / SR Südwest /
SWF / WDR / 
(refering to Astra - should be transponder 71)
 
vertikal: 
n-tv / viva / fashion-tv / bloomberg tv de / 
(refering to Astra - should be transponder 116)

I tried every driver version from linuxtv.org, firmware build in an loaded via 
hotplug. I tried different kernels 2.4.21-xxx	and all > 2.6.2, but everytime 
I have the same problem. I tested the card in some other PC's but that didn't 
help. I'm still not getting any other channel then the ones that I listed 
above. 

The card is ok - I tested it with the original technotrend and progdvb under 
windows - there I get all channels. So it isn't a hardware problem.

Because I get the Problem with every linux-distribution and nearly every 
driver (I was not able to compile the newstruct driver) I think there is a 
serious bug in the dvb-driver. With the linux-dvb driver the card is not able 
to lock any other channel.

Is there any possibility to fix that problem ?

I attached some messages.

Greetz
