Hello,
I can't seem to get my mini-diseqc to work:
I have a dish wih 2 lnb pointed at Sirius and Thor (input a and b
respectively) connected to a mini-diseqc.
When i try to scan the channels I get channels from Sirius
regardless of what i set the -s parameter to dvbscan to.
I have tried this with stock drivers from a number of 2.6-kernels
as well as the Mercurial rep. as of 2006-03-21.
A quick check of the archives didn't turn upp anything apparent,
so I'm asking if anyone has a recommendation or if I just have
broken hw.
The mini-diseqc works with the old (ie. ancient) stb.

just to verify, you could try to use dvbstream -D A (or -D B) ...
and see if it works as expected.
Please, use a fresh cvs checkout from SF, not official (and
ancient) releases.
Nico
Thanks,
dvbtools from cvs seems to work, which seems to indicate that
something is broken in the linuxtv.org dvb-apps...
Is this a known fact?
Are there any alternatives to using dvbscan to discover channels?
