Has anyone had a chance to try the stoth/hvr4000 tree after the recent fixes? It's certainly going through the correct motioned for tuning now. (I don't have a feed available for testing right now).

I just pulled and installed the repo and DVB-S works fine in kaffeine.

The combined bug fixes are a success.

I don't know how to test DVB-S2, but I will hunt around for a clue.

I hand modified dvbtune with some extra args to send via the new API (as well as the old). I can make that available if you need it, that what I used for testing in Europe on Astra 19.2. I patches version 0.05, now that I look at the sourceforge.net site, it hasn't changed from 0.5 for 3 years. :(

This won't help you unless you're running with the multiproto API.

I just assumed other dvb tools (by now) would be updated and I'd drop my patches.
Remember, DiSEqC is not implemented.

Understood. I've resorted to using a nokia 9600s on a priority
switch to send diseqc down the wire :-) If you have any idea how
Diseqc is done on the hvr4000 please say, it would appreciated
and I am willing to investigate and implement if possible.


I have to look back through my notes but this is pretty trivial, let me look into this. From memory, we receive a buffer of bytes, we reformat the buffer into a cx24116 firmware command and execute it.

In summary then: existing DVBS tuning is working fine (without DiSEqC) using the current hvr4000 tree. That's good news.

Regards,

Steve
