Multiproto DVBFE_GET_INFO and (not) locked

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Manu, hi all

I'm referring to the jusst.de/hg/multiproto tree. Working with a KNC1
DVB-S2 card to enhance the VideoLAN dvb plugin.

Testing showed that DVBFE_GET_INFO returns different frontend infos
(fec, mods) when the tuner is locked and when it is not (pasted below).

Is this the correct/expected behavior?

run (femon says no lock at start):
