What revision is your full featured card out of interest? It should prompt this when loading the modules.I changed the scripts to NOT load the frontend module for this card (ves1820), you then need to modify VDR a little to check for the presence of a DVB card not by /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 or something like that, but for example /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0. The card can now be used for output etc, but nothing will try to tune it. I don't know if this is absolutely necessary but I have read many stories like yours where a card does not like to run without a signal, and this way it works for me at least.
Can you send a diff for this modification? I would like to try it here with my DVB-s if it would work...LoL *smack on head* heureka - if that works that'd be great news indeed for all rev 1.3. / rev. 1.5 users who want to use it for replay only / DVB-T transfer mode . Sometimes solutions seem so easy - why didn't we think about this one before? I really hope this workaround turns out to make a difference.
