Thanks for the patch, but it's only a partial success.
I did some tests with your change and the other patch and without the
other patch. (should I keep the stv0299.c patch applied or not?)
Both times I get the same result. I can do a dvbscan on both satellites,
get a channels.conf for both and as far as I can see both look good to
me. But I can only watch TV on the first satellite (Astra). When I try
to watch a program on the second (Hotbird) I still get the tuning failed
error message.
