I have done another test. Hispasat has another transponder with more than 40 
channels freq: 12456-V (this time are all data channels). I have configured 
a channel in VDR with this frequency and all other parameters with zero. I 
get the same efect as explained before. I'm very sure that DVB driver has a 
bug. Seems like an overflow of the memory reserved for getting the channels 
per transponder.

I can see all the channels that the transponder is carrying with WatchTvPro 
(windows application), doing a transponder scanning and pressing PSI button.

Help please.
