I would recommend config options for uncommitted switches and 1..2 repeats for cascaded switches. And for simple equipment it might be worthwhile to skip diseqc and just use tone/volt. I haven't tried mythtv yet, but doesn't it use a software MPEG decoder for Nova/Budget cards? If so, I guess the slow program switching speeds is a result of the pre-buffering done by the software MPEG decoder. > Anyhow, I would be interested in knowing if I have understood the diseqc > stuff right - just to educate myself on the subject. Seems like you got it right. Johannes -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
