[linux-dvb] Re: second DVB-s not used anymore

[benjamin.harling@t-online.de (Benjamin Harling)]

Hi Klaus,

that was it. I'm happy again .-)

This coincides with the download of the up-to-date-list of
satellite-transmisions from dxandys web-site. This file was in the wrong
format and I used it unaware of the possible side-effects.

I am wondering why this site is so popular. He (andy) wasn't very helpfull
when I asked him for a manual to use his service and one saving-format
option is still vdr061 (beta), which led to this problem at all. Allthough
his service i still valuable, just not for the uninitiated. I don't want to
blame him.

thanks for your help (and your software)

bye Benjamin
