Dear Everybody, I have a linux box (RH 7.1/ kernel 2.4.10 / PIII 450 MHz / 128 Mo RAM). I'm using 2 Hauppauge win TV DVB-S (second release) with the latest driver.
At first, I installed the software with only 1 DVB-S card in the box. Everything was running OK : I was receiving a PID on Astra (freq 12,363 GHz, pol V). Then I installed a second card and reconfigured absolutely nothing (I just 'make insmod' in the driver directory). I tried to tune the second card on HotBird (freq 10,911 GHz, pol V). The status I get from the frontend is 1 (HAS_POWER). After a TUNE cmd, when I try to get frontend events, I only get FAILURE_EVT (I read 10 events). I tried to use the sec device to set pol V (13 volts) and low freq (NO TONE). When I read the sec status, I get bus mode =0 (bus_idle), voltage = 2 (13 Volts) and 22KHz = 1 (TONE OFF). So the sec device is in the state I asked for. I tried to switch the LNB inputs on both cards (I do have 2 dishes with good signal). It still works for Astra (on the newly inserted card) but not for HotBird (on the formerly installed card). (So It doesn't seem to be a /dev/ost/qpsk1 problem but a tuning problem...) Is my understanding of all this OK ? Couldn't there be some problems with frequencies very close to the 10,600 GHz frequency of the LNB ? Any hint ? I guess I'm not the only one to use 2 DVB-S staring at 2 differents satellites...
