Hello, anything new ? On http://dev.kewl.org/hvr4000/ one could read : "News 21 nov 2007 ================ Imported signal readings from reelbox code. Re-calibrated against a FORTEC receiver (originally dvb2000). This include BER, UCB, strength and quality. Previous strength reading is now quality as confirmed in reelbox code and on FORTEC. News 19 nov 2007 ================ Diseqc command strategy has been reverted to an older method which caches message prior to burst IOCTL. This is now the default and this ought to fix some issues with szap found recently with some switches. The updated derived burst hack strategy still exists but now must be enabled with a module parameter called 'dsec'. See modinfo cx24116 FYI. You may need to enable the hack method for mythtv. Either method ought to work for kaffeine and szap. The status of VDR is unknown, try either." Is there an updated patch for http://jusst.de/hg/multiproto which seems to be the only actual repo with which vdr work ? I just compiled the v4l-dvb with http://dev.kewl.org/hvr4000/v4l-dvb-hg-2007-11-21.diff to test diseqc with szap and a channels.conf made for having all my 3 sat, hi/lo, and h/v : TV5MONDE
