Hi everybody,

power management is enabled by default now, the default timeout after device release is 5 seconds. This means that LNB voltages are switched of about 5 seconds and you won't see any picture anymore unless you keep the frontend file descriptor open.

You can control this behaviour using the 'dvb_shutdown_timeout' module parameter. When you set 'dvb_shutdown_timeout=0' power management is disabled.

Those of you who use the DVB driver for networking might want to add this line to your modules.conf:

options dvb-core dvb_shutdown_timeout=0

When you load the driver using 'make insmod' the Makefile will override this option and disable power management for now. This might change soon.

Holger
