Got a message from John that he couldn't reproduce. It may have just been

I wonder if we can get a fuller description of the problem and what should happen?

I almost always get the message "You should have got a signal lock by now" or words to that effect -> the lock is always achieved though and I assumed that the timeout values were too short for my card. As I don't watch live TV often I didn't give it much thought.

Your timeout values may indeed be too short. At one time, it defaulted to ~1.5 seconds, if I remember correctly, which is just too short for a diseqc switch and CAM. This default is currently 60 seconds - But is only updated when recreating the card from scratch.

The configuration setting is available in mythtv-setup, under capture cards / Card / (signal + channel timeout).

Cheers,

Allan.
