AW: [vdr] Problems receiving couple of german channels DVB-S
Okay, we need to put then an eye on your hardware setup - this is a problem before the DVB-S cards. You where talking about 3 DVB-S cards, but how many LNB's do you have? How have you wired the system? We have: horizontal / vertical polarization and then lower and upper band! This makes 2x2 = 4 possible areas. So, if you go with more than 2 cards - 3 or 4 or more, you need a quad LNB with maybe some additional hardware.

Three cables go from the multiswitch to the DVB-S cards. If any of the four cables going to the Multiswitch were wrong, wouldn't the channels not work at all?

If you end the vdr, the block won't be deleted, so you may try to delete the shared memory block and let vdr create a new one. Did you make sure that you have a clean build (make clean doesn't delete all the files...)? Bye, Martin ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Re: [vdr] Problems receiving couple of german channels DVB-S
Good morning martin, Any obstacles in the way, like trees or so? There is something that’s called Fresnel zone, which can be painful. It is possible that some trees are in the way, but I'd say the house is far enough away, and the dish is high enough. And would an obstacle create problems only on some channels and not others? Any oscillating frequencies in your PC that may interfere the ~1GHz ZF signal? Well, it is regular PC with most stuff on board, except graphics card and the three DVB-S boards. -- Best regards Peer Oliver Schmidt PGP Key ID: 0x83E1C2EA ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
