[linux-dvb] probs w. two different DVBs cards

[Andreas Steinhauser <steini@gate5.de>]

I have two DVBs cards, a 1.3 and a 2.1.
The 2.1 is physicaliy the first and the 1.3 is the second card at the PCI
bus. The 1.3 has a CI/CAM connected.
If I configure the 1.3 (physically the second) as the primary in
/video/setup.conf , and then
press record, the recording is starting on the secondary (phsically the
first) with ist correct, but the video on the primary freezes. I can
switch channels on the primary and the onscreen menu showes the channel
info, but the video keeps freezed.
Playing an recorded video with the primary (remember:physically the
second) works fine, but by stopping the playback the channel switches to
n-tv. Switching the channel now has no effect but shows the correct
(swithched) onscreen  menu. The channel is still n-tv.
The recorded video is ok.
No error message is found in log.

Next experiment:
configuring the physically first card (2.1) as primary and (what wonder)
the second (1.3) as secondary, recording a video works fine at the second
card. I can use the first for switching channels or replaying a recorded
video. But using fast forward now brings the following error message:

I am using the  siemens_dvb-0.9-20010817 driver.
