Hi all

I've fixed my problem thx to Arne Varholm. I found some old postings on the dev mailing list about the issue I'm facing so i contacted one of the fellows in the discussion and Arne told me that I could comment out the following lines in dvbdiseqc.cpp

if (ioctl(fd_frontend, FE_DISEQC_SEND_BURST, SEC_MINI_A ) == -1)
{
    ERRNO("FE_DISEQC_SEND_BURST failed");
    return false;
}

Now it works like a charm. My C++ skills ar very basic and I do not know how to file a bug report (if this is a bug) so that it can be implemented in the source distribution. The code fragment above is still in the CVS. But as i said, my C++ skills are very basic and I do not if one just can remove these lines without disturbing something else

Hello
Yes I've tried using the scan utility and it works. So therefore I've
also checked the commands sent in mythtv but I'm no expert in that area.

The command sent for LNB 1
"DiSEqC 1.0 Switch - Port 0
DiSEqC Sending 1.0 Command: e0 10 38 f1"

On LNB2, I get the following :

"DiSEqC 1.0 Switch - Port 1
DiSEqC Sending 1.0 Command: e0 10 38 f4"
That are the correct commands as far as I know. Only one last possibility
comes to mind, for scanning you put in a frequency and so, could it be
that what you think is lnb1 with it's freq etc. that it first scans lnb2
and that on lnb2 a freq from lnb1 exists but not vice-versa ?

Now I'm out of ideas

Thanks for the article link but I'm not using a reiser card in my box.
I'm running a Mainboard with VIA chipset and the TT card is connected to
one of the PCI-slots.

Thx, for the help and the file Henk.. :-)

Ok. yes the commands seems to be correct. When looking at the
diseqc.conf from vdr and reading about the Diseqc 1.o commands the
commands sent by my myth box seems to be correct.  Hmm. You have a point
about the frequencies and a possible mixup. I have to investigate so
that the frequencies is correctly associated with the right LNB and
satellite.

Maybe it also could be that Myth does not send the right frequency, 22
khz, for selecting LNB. I'm under the impression that this freq. can be
22 khz,33 khz,44 khz  depending on which country you are in. Where do I
set this value in myth? Is this the frequency-table setting in myth-setup?!

For me on the ASTRA's of 19.2 and 28.2 it works ok.
