I think, this is becouse "Initial support for Mantis VP-1041"
not usability yet.
I use patch from Hans Werner for 1041, works better.

Subject: mantis vp1041 with
strange diseqc rotor commands
Hi,
I am using the latest mantis drivers from Manu's
repository:
http://jusst.de/hg/mantis/
with my
Azureware twinhan vp1041 based card.
Locking to DVB-S channels works fine
almost all the time with the patched szap or patched mythtv.
Did not try
DVB-S2 yet. But what I am having troubles now is the diseqc. I have a switch
behind a diseqc 1.2 rotor (goto stored positions).
The switching works fine
under Windoz. I have no problems also using it with my other card in the same
box - Twinhan 102g.
Initially with the vp1041 card after a couple of diseqc
commands I would get stb0899_diseqc_fifo_empy timeout. It turned out that I
had to use some very long pauses before sending a repeat command. If
for
the 102g standart 15ms worked fine, for the vp1041 I had to use 1s! pause.
Then the rotor will start
moving very slowly with small steps -
as if it is does one step , stops and then continues to the desired
position.If one is patient enough the rotor gets to the desired position. I
checked using voltmeter the voltages that come out of the card and they seem
to be good. For sending the commands I used both mythtv and hacked version of
Michel Verbraak's gotox program.
Has anyone experienced something similar
with stb0899 frontend? Perhaps you can give me an idea what might be going
wrong?
Thanks,
Simeon
