Would it be possibe to update this in a later version of VDR please Klaus? Given that there is currently no multiple satellite support in code VDR (there should be really - many people would appreciate this), then it would make sense to at least permit a plugin to be able to move the dish with diseqc commands.

Hi Klaus,
As part of a recent upgrade from vdr-1.7.22 to 1.7.27 within yavdr I've seen
that my rotorng plugin doesn't work anymore and this is shown in the syslog
when I try to send a disecq command: -
vdr: [8287] ERROR: frontend 1/0: Invalid argument
The plugin includes a patch to the vdr src which adds another method to
cDvbTuner: -
+bool cDvbTuner::SendDiseqcCmd(dvb_diseqc_master_cmd cmd)
+{
+ cMutexLock MutexLock(&mutex);
+ if ((frontendType!=SYS_DVBS2 && frontendType!=SYS_DVBS) || SendDiseqc)
+return false;
+ diseqc_cmd=cmd;
+ SendDiseqc=true;
+ newSet.Broadcast();
+ return true;
+}
and modifies cDvbTuner::GetFrontendStatus with: -
cMutexLock MutexLock(&mutex);
+if (SendDiseqc) {
+ CHECK(ioctl(fd_frontend, FE_DISEQC_SEND_MASTER_CMD, &diseqc_cmd));
+ SendDiseqc=false;
+ }
Has anything changed in VDR, or perhaps the driver that means this no longer
works the way that it used to? I've looked through the HISTORY and can't spot
anything that stands out.
I'm afraid I can't think of anything obvious.
Could you try using versions 1.7.13 thru 1.7.27 in turn to see
which version introduced the problem?
Klaus
