[vdr] Siemens DVB-S Rev. 1.6 with vdr?

[André Vogt <vdrlist@hightechfreak.com>]

Hi list,

does vdr work with a Siemens DVB-S Rev. 1.6?

I never even knew that such a revision exists (and also the search didn't
bring any result),
but somehow I got such a card when I bought one.

I added the card to my vdr system (vdr 1.0.0 with a DVB-S Rev. 1.3 with
ALLCAM 4.x SE)
to enable timeshifting.

Following the log file the card is recognized (see the full log below)
but it fails tuning channels (at least that's what it looks like).

I tried to simplify things by using only one card but still with the Rev.
1.6 card
the log file says (using the Rev. card everything works fine):

Does anybody have an idea if the card is not supported of maybe even broken?

Any hints are appreciated,

thanks in advance,

Andre
