Hi Milos,
I have 2 x VDR boxes using TBS6280, TBS6922 and TBS6928.
- vdr-2.0.6 on Debian.
- TBS drivers from 2013-09-01
- IR receiver not from TBS cards, but TSOP on com port with LIRC.
At the beginning, drivers was buggy, and I could't use dvb-t *AND* dvb-s2 cards
at the same time. I worked with TBS support during several weeks to fix the
problem : they even sent to me USB card to check if problem was from PCI-E or
from driver, etc...). At the end, they fixed their driver and all was OK.
Technical support is really excellent !
The only restriction I have is from CAM, even if it's a dual : I can't
register two channels at the same time, I don't know if limitation is from VDR
or from CAM (I tried with Viaccess Secure from SMIT and NEOTION, same problem).
You should contact TBS support, I am sure they could help you.

I tested it with VLC, problem is definitely in the TBS drivers.

Hi,
I continued with investigation. I build new computer, there is only
VDR and two TBS6285 cards.
When I start VDR with one adapter CPU load rises to 2 and after 5
minutes drops to 0.03 . There is no streaming, no playing.
In the syslog are not any bad messages. When I use all 8 adapters CPU
load is between 4 and 12, never drops.
There is no problem with signal quality. In the cannels.conf is only
one multiplex. EPG scan take 2 seconds.
How can I find what VDR doing with not used adapters?
Maybe those adapters are not initialized and in the driver are bad
defaults.

CPU load debug, it is really strange. I tried to exclude IRQ storm,
but it is difficult to confirm it. :
