I have attached two patches for scan-s2 at http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/scan-s2.
Patch1: Some fixes for problems I found. QAM_AUTO is not supported by all drivers,
in particular the HVR-4000, so one needs to use QPSK as the default and ensure that
settings are parsed properly from the network information -- the new S2 FECs and
modulations were not handled.
Patch2: Add DiSEqC 1.2 rotor support. Use it like this to move the dish to the correct
position for the scan:
scan-s2 -r 19.2E -n dvb-s/Astra-19.2E
or
scan-s2 -R 2 -n dvb-s/Astra-19.2E
A file (rotor.conf) listing the rotor positions is used (NB: rotors vary -- do check your
rotor manual).
I didn't check the diff files yet, will do it when I get home.
But I don't think QPSK should be used by default. I have a version already where you can specify which scan mode you want to be performed DVB-S or DVB-S2 by specifying S1 or S2 in freq file, also if you implicitly specify QPSK in frequency file the utility will not scan DVB-S2, same logic also for 8PSK that will scan only DVB-S2 and will not try to scan DVB-S.
I'll push that version soon to the repository.
The default should stay the AUTO mode since there are cards that can handle that and their owners might have simplified frequency file version.
