The Diseqc-specs at http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/pdf/Diseqc/Reference%20docs/bus_spec.pdf (table on page 13) confirm that dvbtune is in fact sending the wrong command.

With a patched dvbtune (pol-bit and band-bit both inverted) it works OK, and is also according to the Eutelsat specs.


I have attached a patch for you.

The problem is only in dvbtune (version 0.5); you may not have been using dvbtune (dvbtools); dvbscan and szap (linuxtv-dvb-apps) do not suffer from this problem.

I disagree with your changes:
according to the specs that you linked the fields are:
*switch-number
*switch option
*satellite position
*polarization
*frequency_is_in_hi_band
*bytecode


                        1 A A V Lo F0
                        2 A A V Hi F1
                        3 A A H Lo F2
                        4 A A H Hi F3
                        5 A B V Lo F4
                        6 A B V Hi F5
                        7 A B H Lo F6
                        8 A B H Hi F7
                        9 B A V Lo F8
                       10 B A V Hi F9
                       11 B A H Lo FA
                       12 B A H Hi FB
                       13 B B V Lo FC
                       14 B B V Hi FD
                       15 B B H Lo FE
                       16 B B H Hi FF

assuming that in the code "pol" stands for "pol_is_vertical" and that "hi_lo" stands for "hi_band" ( frequency above SLOF) and counting bits from 8..1
- the last bit must be set to 1 when hi_band is 1
- the forelast bit (0x2) must be set when the polarization is horizontal (this polv is 0).

Please, explain why you believe that the current code is incorrect
