[vdr] Tuning with Diseqc



  Hi,

  I have a problem with tuning using DVB-S card (SkyStar1 - Philips
Semiconductors SAA7146 [rev 01]) and diseqc with two lnbs (astra 19.2
and hotbird). I turned diseqc support in VDR (1.0.4, using DVB 0.9.4).
After loading driver I can tune to some channels, but not to others
(even on same satellite). Later I unload dvb drivers and use dbv
receiver (samsung 9500 viaci) to tune to certan channel, and than reload
dvb drivers and everything is ok. DVB receiver is connected throught
loop (pass-trough) connector on DVB card (also tried opposite setup and
setup without dvb receiver).

  Also, after I unload driver and use dvb receiver to tune to channel,
it seems it is also unable to tune, but after switching to different
channels everything is working again. Like diseqc (or lnb?) gets
confused?

  Here is my setup on dvb receiver which works all the time (when not
using dvb card): 
  - Diseqc A: Astra
  - Diseqc B: HotBird
  - LNB Lower LO: 9750 MHz
  - LNB Upper LO: 10600 MHz
  - Tone 22KHz: Auto
  - Switch 0/12V: 0V
  - Positioner DiseqC 1.2: No

  Any ideas?

  Regards,
  Slobodan Tomic.
