[vdr] Two card question for VDR, other problem...

[Gregoire Favre <greg@ulima.unil.ch>]

Hello, 

I have just bought a second Hauppauge DVB-s (also rev 1.3) and got some
strange errors in the logs:

...

I have a DiseqC 2.0 which is connected to the first connected card
(which I think is the 2 in VDR, and in kvdr). The second card is
connected to the looptrough of the first one.
I could understand such errors with different polarization/dishes, but
for example, my six first channels have ...:v:0:... and the one I just
watch has ...:v:1:...

Do I have to make something special?

I am using vdr-1.0.0 and DVD nav8 patch.

And another small question: is it simple to watch simultaneously two
programm? With a combinaison of vdr/kvdr/xawtv (I could do it with kvdr
to watch, if I change the DVB in vdr to set the channel on one DVB and
the to the other: not so conveniant...).

Linux-dvb/VDR/kvdr are just tremendous ;-))

Thanks you very much,

	Grégoire
